Catholic with Attitude has posted some more news of Benedict XVI House, recently set up to accommodate a new lay community at St Mary's, Twickenham.
Some work has been done to make the Oratory of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati dignified (including removal of beanbags) but they need some things for the Liturgy, including, first of all, a set of white vestments. Someone has already donated a fine altar with altar stone, and some kneelers which will be put in place soon. Setting up a chapel properly involves obtaining all sorts of "popish nicknackets" and sometimes, chapels or Churches have things that they don't need but don't want to throw away. This would be a good home for them.
Then there's also the folding stuff, of course. Instructions at the post: An Appeal

Great news! May it prosper!
Sorry I can't send any "quid"...we're poor as church mice these days...
but I will remember them in my Masses, Eucharistic adoration and rosaries.
Thanks, Fr.Tim!

Good luck with the final year of your degree.
I discussed the Papal Visit to London with my local councillors here in Bexley, and I informed them that my eldest son Michael Roy Hobson had stewarded the event at St Mary's University College, Twickenham, where he is studying 'Education' for his Masters degree. Michael said that because the Pope was a 50 per day cigarette smoker, they had to turn off the fire alarms in some areas. Father Finigan also enjoys a cigarette too, so I think he may be amused by that particular aspect of the visit to St Mary's. Here is the link to this massive educational orientated event that I copied on to my Friends Reunited contacts http://www.thepapalvisit.org.uk/Replay-the-Visit/Watch-Again/The-Big-Assembly-Twickenham

I would ask Benedict XVI House to pray for my son Michael, and for my family too. The following comment has just been posted on my FRIENDS REUNITED message board thread CONGRATULATIONS TO TIM MULLEN & ED MILIBAND TOO http://www.friendsreunited.co.uk/SignedIn/MessageBoard/Responses.aspx?mk=1253332&g_t=6&g_k=20583
@ Friends Reunited Team
Thank you for removing the malevolent anti-semitic comments from this thread, which earlier this week attacked Ed Miliband personally, and which sickened me to the core too.
Hitler stole the 'Olympic Dream' at the Berlin Games and as we as contemporary Europeans must ensure that history does not repeat itself in 2012. The SHADOW of the Third Reich, which lasted just 12 years, still generates it's evil malevolent influence:

The above calling card was sent to my family home in Our Lady of the Rosary's Parish of Blackfen, Sidcup in the London Borough of Bexley prior to my individual FARE (Football Against Racism in Europe) evidence, that I gave alongside Yre (Youth against racism in Europe), at the Crayford Inquiry in 1995.
I had already given a copy of the critical anti-Nazi Regina v Hobson 1991 trial manuscript to the London Borough of Bexley's Strategic Planning and Development Department at Wyncham House in Sidcup . The subject in focus at the Crayford Inquiry was the BNP Bookshop/HQ in Welling. The Oklahoma bomb exploded to coincide with the case for the defence and as an evil reminder of the international networking nature of the NAZI BEAST.
When I questioned the NF leader and BNP founder John Tyndall (succeeded as Chairman by Nick Griffin in September 1999) at the Crayford Inquiry about his spurious Holocaust denials and wicked lies he completely folded under my examination and the NF/BNP HQ in Welling was subsequently closed down by the Government.
At the General Election former Met Police Inspector Michael Barnbrook, the malevolent neo-Nazi BNP Police Spokesman, stood as a candidate for MP in the Dagenham and Rainham Parliamentary constituency. Nick Griffin MEP, the BNP's leader stood as a candidate for MP in the neighbouring Parliamentary constituency of Barking. The BNP also put up candidates in all three London Borough of Bexley constituencies : Stephen James in Bexleyheath and Crayford : Kevin Saunders in Erith & Thamesmead : John Brooks in Old Bexley and Sidcup. The BNP Parliamentary AGENT FROM HELL 666, for Bexley's Parliamentary constituencies 999 +, was Mr Michael Barnbrook, 24 Holbeach Gardens, Sidcup, Kent DA15 8QW, which is on the doorstep of Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School in Blackfen +
I would be failing in my professional 'duty of care' if I failed to identify, and actively oppose the evil on the doorstep of Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School in Blackfen +, and in Greater London too.
I would therefore also like to dedicate my own anti-Nazi, You-Tube video performance at Barking & Dagenham Town Hall to England's first Green MP Caroline Lucas, BEXLEY COUNCIL'S CULTURAL OLYMPIAD POETRY WORKSHOP:THEME SPORT at North Heath Library You Tube - Roy Hobson's anti-Nazi performance in Barking & Dagenham 2007 (From Dark to Light Too)
Our Lady of the Rosary pray for us in BNP leader Nick Griffin MEP's EU/GLA/LDA/ODA NEO-NAZI DEVELOPMENT TIMES Amen
PAPA RATZI ( http://www.thepapalvisit.org ) ORA PRO NOBIS!
Yours sincerely
