Flame 2017

On Saturday 11th March, around 10,000 people filled Wembley Arena for Flame 2017, a great celebration of the Catholic Church for youth. It was the third of its kind following popular demand after Flame 2012 and 2015. The spirituality and enthusiasm from the young people who attended was witnessed in the joyful singing along to the music of Matt Redman, the quiet listening to witness stories, reverential prayer and a Mexican wave encircling Wembley Arena.

Among the wealth of well-received talks and colourful presentations, Cardinal Vincent urged the young people to feed into planning for the 2018 Synod of Bishops on ‘Youth, faith and vocational discernment’.

Communications Conference for Priests and Religious

Saturday 13th May 2017 at Holy Apostles Church Hall in Pimlico, London from 10am – 4pm

Communication is a vital part of all our work in the Church. But are we aware that the way we communicate our message will decide who we dialogue with?  Different generations use different methods of communication and listen to different styles. This conference will consider generational issues in communication strategy.
