Mass of Ages, the magazine of the Latin Mass Society, recently published an article about Fr Damian McCaughan, a Chaplain of our Grand Priory. We publish it here by kind permission of the editor, Greg Murphy.

Lancashire Life
The 2011 Investiture was caught on camera by Lancashire Life who produced a great page spread in their Christmas edition. A few images, which do justice to the great event.

Garden Party
The Grand Prior, the Much Honoured Baron of Fetternear, declares the Garden Party open.
Grand Priory Members Daniel & Margaret Lawler had the bright idea of holding a Garden Party to raise funds for our 'home' charity, St Catherine's hospice, in the grounds of St Catherine's Catholic Church, Farington, with the support of the Chaplain General, Fr Simon Henry, ECLJ. (The hospice in Leyland shares its name with the Church, although dedicated to St Catherine of Sienna rather than St Catherine Labouré. (The Hospice was started by a Catholic lady who had a devotion to St Catherine of Sienna).
The weather here has been dreadful for a couple of weeks now but the sun came out for the Garden Party - in fact, just as the Grand Prior declared it open the sun burst forth. Perhaps St Lazarus is a good patron to pray to for fine weather!
There was an excellent turnout and
we raised £1,000 for the Hospice to add to the £600 the Grand Priory gave them
earlier in the year. Thank you to members and Companions of the Order
and to the many parishioners who helped out and supported the
event. Thank you also to those brave souls who travelled by coach from Yorkshire & Loughborough!
Brian & Margareta Munro, CompLJ, feed the crowds
Brenda Flanagan, CompLJ, testing the goods!
The Grand Treasurer looks after the money!
Margaret Brumwell, CompLJ, & friends
Daniel & Margaret Lawler hard at work!
Companions Brenda Flanagan, Jim & Ivy Guthrie, & member Jean Yates, SLJ
Mass in Latin was offered beforehand for those who had travelled by Fr Mark Lawler, SChLJ, Chancellor of the Grand Priory
