Diocesan Almanac

Help transform lives so people facing poverty and disadvantage can live in dignity. Leave a legacy in your will today.

Many of us don’t want to think about making a Will, but letting those closest to you know your wishes is vital. Did you know that leaving a legacy to charity in your Will: Is a charitable gift that costs you nothing at all today? 1% is left to a charity after your loved ones have been provided for?

Is a straightforward process, that doesn’t take much time?

Can help transform the lives of people in our local communities? Now, that’s certainly a lasting legacy. When the time is right for you, please consider remembering Caritas Salford.

One-hundred and Forty-eighth Annual Publication

(First published 1877)

Foreword

We live in a fast-changing world where what matters today will often only be an afterthought tomorrow. Priorities change, whether in government policy or, due to financial pressures, in our day to day lives. Consumerism and media influence can also play a part in our decision making.

While the Gospel values are unchanging, it is hardly surprising that our Church must be prepared to change the way we share those Gospel values with those we meet. We must think differently about how we present the message of joy, hope and love that the Gospel holds for all who hear it. The saying attributed to St Francis of Assisi advises that we must preach the Gospel at all times, sometimes using words. Our first encounter with those we meet must always be one of welcome and outreach.

Our Hope in The Future programme has reminded us of what we can achieve within our parishes and, from there, reaching outward to our local communities and beyond. Six years after the programme was initiated, many parishes feel a great sense of achievement and a renewed sense of mission. They have made a journey of learning and participation and feel justifiably proud of what they have accomplished. The resources remain available, and Parishes can start this programme at any time and work through the stages in the way that best suits their needs.

There is a lot to be proud about but still more to be done. The success of our participation in World Youth Day and our Lourdes and Walsingham pilgrimages show that there is a place for such events and the companionship that these events naturally bring about.

Going forward, we must take the time to review our estate. Some buildings are in need of a great deal of repair and some are sadly beyond restoration. We must be sure to be environmentally and ecologically aware in all that we do in building a diocese fit for the future and for the purpose of the Church in the 21st century.

At this time, our focus must remain on synodality and that prayerful discernment of what God is asking of us in our Church. This is a time of renewal and an opportunity for listening and acting on the observations of those who may, for a variety of reasons, feel distanced or alienated from the Church as well as those who are active members of our parishes.

2024 will be an important and busy year as we look forward to the Jubilee Year in 2025. Please do get involved in any way you can to make this a blessed and fruitful celebration for your parish, our Diocese and indeed, the Church throughout the world.

Stay with us, Lord, on our journey.

Diocese of Salford

Salford

Comprising the Hundreds of Salford and Blackburn in the County of Lancaster and the parish of Dunsop Bridge, the Diocese of Salford encompasses most of Greater Manchester and a large part of Lancashire, between the River Mersey and the River Ribble, as well as some parishes north of the Ribble and Todmorden in Calderdale, West Yorkshire

PATRONS

I Our Lady of Mount Carmel (16 July) St Joseph (19 March)

II St John Apostle (27 December) St Augustine of Canterbury (27 May) Diocese consecrated to the Sacred Heart on 21 September 1873 and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on 16 July 1943

BRIEF HISTORY [Mainly extracts from diocesan website]

The diocese was erected on 29 September 1850, through a decree signed by Pope Pius IX, as one of the first post-Reformation dioceses in Great Britain. The 1851 census revealed that the diocese had 32 churches and chapels served by 37 priests and around 33,000 Catholics attending Mass.

The story of the diocese is one of rising industrialisation, immigration and universal educational provision. Its expansion runs parallel with the population growth in the region. The first 50 years of its existence saw the number of Catholics in the Diocese increase by almost 90%.

A new century brought with it doctrinal and social change both from governments at home and from the Vatican. Major landmarks in 20th and 21st Century Catholic British history such as the 1944 Education Act and the Second Vatican Council had a considerable impact on life in the diocese and its future.

In 1970, Pope Paul VI canonised 40 English and Welsh Martyrs, including some with connections to the diocese: Saints Edmund Arrowsmith, Ambrose Barlow, John Plessington, John Southworth. More from the diocese were beatified in 1987.

During the visit of Saint Pope John Paul II to Britain in 1982, he celebrated Mass and ordained priests in Heaton Park.

Successive bishops have sought to adapt the structures of the diocese to enable it to best respond to changing demographics and patterns of Mass attendance. Most recently we are invited by Pope Francis to develop Missionary Parishes and make sure we attend to the needs of those who are marginalised in our society.

Salford

THE BISHOP RIGHT REVEREND JOHN STANLEY KENNETH ARNOLD

Eleventh Bishop of Salford

John Arnold was born in Sheffield on 12 June 1953 and educated by the Rosminians. A graduate in Law from the University of Oxford and called to the bar in the Middle Temple in 1976, he went on to study for the priesthood at the Venerable English College in Rome, gaining both a licence and a doctorate in Canon Law.

He was ordained priest for the Archdiocese of Westminster on 16 July 1983, the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. After completing his studies in Rome, he served as Chaplain, and later Sub-Administrator, at Westminster Cathedral before becoming Parish Priest at Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St George, Enfield in 1993. From 2001 he served as Chancellor and Vicar General.

On 2 February 2006 he was ordained Auxiliary Bishop of Westminster and Titular Bishop of Lindisfarne. Pope Francis appointed Bishop John as the Bishop of Salford on Tuesday, 30 September 2014. His installation at Salford Cathedral took place on Monday 8 December 2014, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. It was on that occasion that he introduced us to what has now become a familiar prayer across the diocese: Stay with us, Lord, on our journey.

Bishop John is a member of the Bishops’ Conference Department for International Affairs and leads on Environment issues for the Conference. Those same interests are reflected in his work here in the diocese, particularly with the setting up of the Laudato Si’ Centre at Wardley Hall.

In response to declining Mass attendance and a call from Pope Francis for us to be Missionary Parishes, Bishop John announced a restructure of the parishes in January 2017. ‘Strengthening our Presence as Church’ outlined a blueprint for the diocese that would involve a number of parish amalgamations and church closures, necessary to help sustain the diocese for the future.

Caritas Diocese of Salford

“I really couldn't have survived without you. You've really helped and I feel like I'm getting back on my feet again." Feedback from person accessing Caritas Salford’s services.

As the impact of the cost-of-living crisis continues to hit communities across our diocese hard, the team from our diocesan charity, Caritas Salford, are working closely alongside individuals and families across Greater Manchester and Lancashire.

Supporting people experiencing poverty, homelessness, isolation and discrimination, the team of more than 100 staff and over 260 volunteers work tirelessly in the heart of our local communities.

From the family who, despite having two parents in full-time work, found themselves unable to provide a daily meal for their young children, to the man suddenly made homeless after he lost his job when he became ill; from the young woman fleeing an abusive relationship who needs a secure place for her and her young baby to live, to the doctor fleeing his war-torn home country to find a safe and settled place in the UK – the charity’s twelve services offer help to thousands of people every year at a time they need it most.

Their work is always done alongside the people they are supporting, empowering them to change their own lives with dignity.

As the world becomes ever more unsettled, it’s arguably more important than ever to be there for every individual. Whatever their background, whatever situation they are experiencing, and whichever community they are from, the preservation of the dignity of the human person is paramount.

Caritas’ work reaches far and wide across our communities. From their work in schools, providing support, counselling, social work, safeguarding and family support advice to help young people, those closest to them, and school staff, to aiding parishes with support for projects such as the setting up of warm hubs to help local people through winter. They are there whatever challenges people face as they work to both support them through times of crisis, and also advocate for justice and change.

The unstable economic and political landscape has also led to increased pressures associated with running a charity. The running cost of Caritas services has increased, especially with the cost of gas and electricity which ensure buildings are safe and warm. Further they now require significant investment to ensure that they are fit for purpose and work is being completed to prepare a long-term capital plan to repair, redevelop and improve the places that welcome and support those in need.

Despite the challenges of our modern world, the needs of the people who connect with the charity’s services have remained at the heart of every decision made, and will continue to do so as the evolution of the organisation continues.

The Caritas Salford team is not complacent about the challenges that may be ahead but is passionately committed to the work it exists to carry out. Resilience remains key in the coming year to ensure that the lives of people locally can continue to be transformed with dignity.

That work simply couldn’t continue without the community that supports it, right across the diocese, and the team is hugely grateful to everyone who has been part of that broader Caritas Salford community over the last year and beyond that too.

If you’d like to support Caritas Salford by making a donation, leaving a gift in your Will, volunteering your time, or sharing information about the charity’s services locally, please visit www.caritassalford.org.uk or contact info@caritassalford.org.uk or 0161 817 2250.

Diocesan Synod

Bishop John has announced the launch of a Diocesan Synod to prayerfully discern how we can address the needs of our diocesan community in a post-pandemic world.

The Synod was formally decreed during the 2023 Chrism Mass. In calling the Synod, Bishop John reflected on the considerable changes our Church has witnessed over recent years, remarking that the time has come to envisage a new future for the Church in our diocese. A challenge as to what we need to be now in a changing world. What our people expect of us and how might we rethink things?

Our diocesan Synod seeks to provide an answer to these questions by calling us to reflect on the needs of our diocesan community today, and to understand more about the opportunities we have to build up the Church in our part of Greater Manchester and Lancashire.

A Diocesan Synod is a very important event in the life of a Diocese, in which the Bishop, priests and lay-people come together in a spirit of prayer, to discern together, what God is asking of His Church in our Diocese, and will help us live out our calling to be Missionary Disciples.

It is a journey by which we, clergy and laity, under the direction of the Holy Spirit, can together set out the future direction and priorities of the life and mission of our Diocese.

This is not just a process for Church leaders but must be a journey we embark on together to ensure each and every voice is represented in this new generation of our diocesan Church. A collaborative journey that we ask you to join as we work together to live out our call to be missionary disciples.

You can follow the synod and get involved in each stage via www.dioceseofsalford.org/faith/synod

Prayer for the Synod

Loving Father, be with us as we seek new ways of being your people in our Diocese. May each new day bring us closer to your son Jesus, as we follow his teaching and become disciples of love.

As we continue our Synodal journey, draw us closer to each other. May the truth of your Spirit enlighten us. Open our hearts, as we listen to each other and reach out in love to your people. Stay with us, Lord, on our journey. Amen

World Youth Day

Young adults embrace World Youth Day commission to be joyful witnesses of faith Our diocese is beginning a new chapter of hope after young adults embarked on a joy-filled encounter of faith and friendship at the 2023 World Youth Day.

More than 40 young adults from our diocese travelled to Lisbon last August for a global celebration of our faith with the Holy Father himself.

Throughout the week-long pilgrimage, the group attended daily Mass, liturgies, and catechesis, whilst also exploring a whole variety of ways to enrich their faith lives - from celebrating the sacraments, to finding out more about vocations, and even undertaking a day pilgrimage to Fátima.

The week reached its pinnacle on Sunday 6th August, when 1.6 million pilgrims gathered on the banks of the Tagus estuary for Mass with the Holy Father, following an outdoor vigil the night before.

Throughout the week, Pope Francis shared words of guidance, advice, and encouragement with the pilgrims, leading to the empowering commission delivered in his Sunday homily: “to shine, to listen, to be unafraid.”

Bringing his address to a close, he said: “Go forth then, bringing God’s radiant smile to everyone! Go and bear witness to the joy of faith, to the hope that warms your hearts, and to the love that you bring to everything you do.”

The words of the Pope and the overall experience of the pilgrimage ignited a sense of agency in our young pilgrims, who returned home ready to respond with energy and enthusiasm to Pope Francis’ call to be joyful witnesses of faith.

Diocesan Youth Ministry Chaplain, Fr Michael Deas, said: “World Youth Day was amazing for our young people because it gave them a sense that we’re part of something bigger: we’re part of a global Church that’s brimming with young people who are so alive in their faith.

“Now it’s about what they do next, how they bring that wonderful experience of World Youth Day back home to our diocese, and what they do with that, with our support.

“And it’s that which fills us with hope; that’s what inspires people like me – there is real hope that the young people will keep our faith going here in the Diocese of Salford.”

Hope in the Future

Bishop calls for continued mission in final Hope in the Future celebration

Six years have come and gone since we first began our Hope in the Future journey and so much has changed in our diocese and across the world during that time.

From the pandemic that brought the world to its knees, to the terrible news of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, as well as the cost-of-living crisis and appalling statistics of child poverty on our doorstep, it seems as though there has been little room for hope in the past six years.

But in the face of these overwhelming challenges, our parishes, schools, and organisations have been extraordinary. They have been resourceful, imaginative, and resilient in how they’ve adapted to a changing world, revealing the work of the Spirit in our diocese, and proclaiming the joy of the Gospel in times of true difficulty.

And it’s precisely that spirit, that zeal, and that joy – anchored in faith – that we set out to proclaim when we began our Hope in the Future programme six years ago.

Stage Five of the journey launched in October 2022 with a theme of “Sharing the Hope”. This beautiful stage of the programme invited us to reflect on our relationship with others in our communities, as well as across the world, in a bid to live out Jesus’ call to love both God and neighbour.

Our parishes responded with great kindness and creativity, reporting projects that included the introduction of foodbanks, food parcels, refugee welcome initiatives, lunch clubs, environmental projects, efforts to reduce social isolation, and more. One parish was even presented with a special award from Age UK for its thriving Lunch Club Service.

As Stage Five drew to a close, parishes and schools came together in October for a joyful event to celebrate all that they have achieved in the past six years, as well as inviting others to continue or begin their own Hope in the Future journey.

The day consisted of two events; the first for our schools, who took part in a whole host of activities, as well as enjoying lively worship, and engaging talks from Bishop John and lay missionary Pippa Baker. The second event offered a calm atmosphere of prayer, insightful case studies from our parishes, and talks from clergy and lay people alike.

Bringing the event to a close, Bishop John reminded us that our work doesn’t simply end with the programme; it merely provided a bedrock for each one of us to live out our mission as individuals and as parishes and schools.

He said: “St Paul tells us: ‘Just as a human body is made up of many parts and all those parts make up one body, so it is with Christ’. We don’t act alone. We are parts of one body. The body of Christ needs all its parts to be functioning well and that’s what we have to cling on to when we’re speaking about the diocese and its mission – and all our parishes, working together.

“We can’t privatise our faith; it can’t just be something internal – we are missionary disciples. We have got to go out, to walk with people, and show Christ’s love to them in all that we do.”

Resources and information on our Hope in the Future programme remain on our website to assist parishes and schools to continue or begin the journey in their own time.

‘Pilgrims of Hope’ – 2025 Jubilee Year

Following the extraordinary 2015-16 Holy Year of Mercy instigated by Pope Francis, the forthcoming Jubilee will take place in line with the norm of leaving a 25-year gap between each one. The most recent ordinary jubilee took place in the year 2000. Jubilee years have been a regular celebration in the life of the Church since 1300.

Jubilee or Holy Years are a celebration of a special gift of grace, characterised by the forgiveness of sins. Traditionally, it begins just before Christmas and ends on the Epiphany of the following year.

The Pope inaugurates the Holy Year with the rite of the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter’s Basilica. After that, the Holy Doors of the other papal basilicas – St John Lateran, St Paul Outside the Walls, and St Mary Major – are opened and remain so until the end of the Jubilee Year. During this year the City of Rome is expected to welcome over 35 million visitors. Pope Francis has approved the motto ‘Pilgrims of Hope’ for the 2025 jubilee year, two words that represent key themes of Pope Francis’ pontificate.

As preparations continue in the Vatican, we are also looking to how we mark the special year here in our own Diocese.

Bishop John has asked Fr Christopher Lough to lead on the planning that we hope will involve a number of pilgrimages and local events. More will be shared throughout 2024.

Caritas Diocese of Salford is the principal social action charity of the Diocese of Salford

Putting Love Into Action

Caritas Salford’s mission is to help those across the Diocese experiencing poverty, disadvantage and discrimination to transform their lives with dignity. We provide a practical response to those in crisis, suffering hardship or who are vulnerable. We rebuild lives for the long-term, enabling people to live in a safe, healthy and secure environment. We call for a better, more just world where the voices of those experiencing poverty are heard and acted upon and positively influence the systems, decisions and resources that affect those in need.

Our priorities are to

• Reduce poverty, disadvantage and discrimination in our Diocese to enable people to ‘live life to the full’

• Increase awareness and understanding of Catholic Social Teaching and Animate the Diocesan Community to take practical action.

• Become a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves, empowering people and advocate for justice and social change

• Become a sustainable and more visible and effective catalyst for change.

This is delivered through our range of practical services to support children and families, those experiencing homelessness or insecure housing, those needing support with the essentials of daily living including food and clothing, welcoming and protecting refugees and people seeking safety in our communities, promoting accessibility and inclusion for those with particular needs, especially the deaf community and people with disabilities.

We welcome the support of volunteers who are essential to our work. For further information on the diverse range of our services to support people in need, please visit the website or contact us on 0161-817 2250

Catholic Charismatic Renewal

0161 226 1730

What became known as Catholic Charismatic Renewal began nearly 50 years ago. Since that time, over a hundred million Catholics worldwide would highlight a renewed experience of their faith in the context of the CCR. At its core, the experience of all of these people would be that they recognised their own inability to lead a full and fired-up Christian life by their own efforts, and invited the Holy Spirit to do it on their behalf! At that moment, CCR would say they experienced the 'Baptism in the Holy Spirit'. This 'Baptism' is not a one-off moment. Like leaking buckets, we constantly need to be re-filled, and remain open to the water of the Spirit. This disposition can be described as living 'Life in the Spirit'.

Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem

01772 722056

The historic origins of the Order now remain obscured by time. However an ancient tradition can be identified of Knighthood being conferred at the Holy Sepulchre following the Crusades. Over time, tradition evolved, in whichforms of papal patronage were extended to those who defended the Church in the Holy Land.

The modern Order was established in the nineteenth century by Blessed Pius IX, who mandated it to support the revived Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem. Today, members of the Order, lay and clerical, live its mission by striving to realise their personal spiritual development and helping to sustain the Patriarchate and its peoples financially.

Legion of Mary

A world-wide apostolic organization for men and women, normally parish-based. The primary work of the Legion of Mary is that of the Church - to evangelize. Active members meet weekly to pray together, learn more about the faith and organise work visits in the parish under the direction of the parish priest, all in union with Our Lady. Coming together in this way helps members to discover and deepen the joy of the Gospel message. It builds a sense of community and inspires greater confidence and enthusiasm for living and sharing the Gospel message with others. In their work, members invite others to become active in parish life, gently encourage those who have lapsed to return to the practice of their faith, and invite those outside the Church to discover the treasures of the Catholic Faith. They also visit and support isolated members of the parish community.

Marist Way

01642 814486

The Marist Way is the lay branch of the Marist Congregation, bringing together people who wish to participate in the life and mission of the Church in the 'Spirit of Mary' a way envisaged by Jean-Claude Colin, founder of the Marists- Priests, Sisters, Brothers and Laity. Marists endeavor to think, feel, judge and act as Mary did, at Nazareth and at Pentecost all Marists believe that Mary maintains a special interest in bringing the women and men of our time into contact with her Son, Jesus. They feel called to share in this concern of Mary's and to become part of her family to work on her behalf. The term 'The work of Mary' describes this essentially missionary spirit. Marists adopt a 'low profile' approach, always having a great respect for others. Being 'hidden and unknown' in the world is the Marist way - being personally unnoticed whilst doing great good for others.

Stella Maris

0207 901 1931

Stella Maris (Apostleship of the Sea) is the official maritime agency of the Catholic Church in Great Britain. Stella Maris is a registered charity (No 1069833) reliant on the annual Sea Sunday appeal and donations to sustain its ministry. Ninety percent of world trade is carried by ship, however, seafarers and fishers often work in dangerous conditions suffering loneliness, deprivation and even exploitation. Stella Maris deploys chaplains and ship visitors who welcome merchant seafarers and fishers to our shores and provide for their pastoral and practical needs - regardless of creed or nationality. Catholic seafarers and fishers are also given the opportunity to receive the sacraments. In addition, Stella Maris provides chaplains on board cruise ships, works to maintain seafarers' centres inside ports, and collaborates with industry bodies to speak up for seafarers' and fishers' rights. Stella Maris relies on a network of valued contacts and volunteers to sustain its development. If any parish would like to hear more about offering prayer, volunteering or financial support to help the work please email us.
