Foreword On Sunday 29th December 2024, Pope Francis will have inaugurated the Jubilee Year for the Catholic Church throughout the world. The theme for the Jubilee Year is “Pilgrims of Hope” and it is important that we build Hope in the face of all the challenges that we face as a Church, as a Nation and as a World.

Although there were already serious conflicts around the world as we began 2024, the conflict has grown, particularly in the Middle East, and the appalling statistics of casualties are a daily shock.

So many civilians, particularly women and children have been killed and wounded. In our own country, there are shocking reports about poverty, especially among children. The bad news can seem overwhelming, and we can feel helpless as we hear news of conflict and climate change events. This is a good moment to remind ourselves of Pope Francis’ encouraging words that “Each and every one of us has our part to play”. Our actions may seem insignificant, but they matter. And our prayers for peace and the resolution of global problems remain of great importance.

We can certainly have a clearer impact on local issues. The Diocesan Synod is now in its final phases and, following the event in March, we should be able to set our priorities according to the Gospel values of what we want to achieve as Church in our Diocese. We must be sure to test all our decisions and plans against the two most important commandments of the law, as taught by Jesus. “You must love the Lord your God, with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and you must love your neighbour as yourself”.

In many cases, I suspect, our present good work will be endorsed. There is the work of Caritas which achieves a great deal in helping people in the most difficult situations of poverty and homelessness. Our ecumenical and interfaith initiatives will surely be seen to be of great importance as we develop that reality of a unity in our very diverse community. We have so many cultures and Faiths within Greater Manchester and we can learn from one another and benefit from developing the principles and beliefs that we hold in common, concerning peace, the sanctity of life, the eradication of poverty and the care for the environment and our common home. Our “Hope in the Future” programme has been of benefit in many parishes with growing active participation in community projects and devotions.

I am thankful for all that is being done to promote de-carbonisation of our buildings and the study now being implemented for a property strategy which will help us to maintain well the buildings that we have and consider the future for some buildings no longer in use. Our personal commitments, even in small ways, will all contribute to the health of our planet.

I understand that there will be numerous events for the celebration of the Jubilee Year, bit in parishes, the Diocese and in various pilgrimages. I hope that it will prove to be an important year for all of us in strengthening our Faith and purpose.

“Stay with us, Lord, on our Journey”

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.

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 can’t tell you how much this means to have support. Things are so hard at the moment and I’m really grateful for everything you do. My boys don’t know where the food comes from, but they know they will be fed.” Person accessing Caritas Salford’s services With more than 333,000 children in our diocese living in poverty, despite many being part of families with both parents working, the cost-of-living crisis is still continuing to hit communities across our diocese hard.

The number of people experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless has also grown, and there are thousands more people in our communities who are facing discrimination or isolation for many different reasons.

Our diocesan charity, Caritas Salford, works closely alongside individuals and families from parishes right across Greater Manchester and Lancashire to help them transform their lives with dignity. They work with people not just at a time of acute crisis, but for the long-term too.

From the family who needed support after becoming homeless due to their father’s sudden illness, to the woman fleeing an abusive relationship who needed a safe place for her and her baby to live; from the teacher forced to flee his country because of war who reached out for help to settle and continue his career here in the UK, to the dad in need of food support as he found himself unable to provide a daily meal for his young child – the charity’s services help thousands of people in our communities every year.

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 remains paramount.

Caritas’ work reaches far and wide across our communities. They work in schools, providing support, counselling, social work, safeguarding and advice to help young people, those closest to them, and school staff. They support people at a time of crisis via the Bishop’s Fund grants with direct financial help. They’re there to aid parishes with support for projects such as the setting up of warm hubs, accessibility advice or signposting them to other help. They run a variety of day centres, supported accommodation and community pantries which are always there, whatever challenges people face. And, the team not only supports people at a time they need it most, they also advocate strongly, shouting loudly for justice and change.

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 cost-of-living crisis has led to increased pressures associated with running a charity, including a rise in costs to continue this important work in our communities. 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.

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

Diocesan Synod Thousands of people across the diocese have played an important part in shaping the future of our local Church through the continuation of our Diocesan Synod.

Last spring was a pivotal moment in the process of the synod, with hundreds of people gathering together on Saturday 18th May to hear feedback from our Big Listen exercise, which drew to a close in January 2024.

During the day, we explored the four principal themes that had emerged from around 30,000 responses submitted during the Big Listen. The themes are: • Nurturing Faith for Tomorrow’s World • Building Connections • Enabling Access • Fostering Christ-like Care The sharing of the themes kickstarted the next stage of the process, which began in the autumn of 2024. This stage – called the Exploration Stage – provided people across the diocese with the opportunity to prayerfully consider and discuss each theme in turn and suggest proposed actions, with the view of all proposals being put to a vote in our Final Synod Gathering in March 2025 to select which priorities to implement through the development of a pastoral plan.

Diocese of Salford Synod Prayer 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.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Pray for us.

St Joseph. Pray for us.

Lourdes Centenary: Passing on the Flame of Faith This summer, hundreds of pilgrims from across our diocese travelled to Lourdes to mark the centenary of this much-loved pilgrimage.

Over the past 100 years, our diocesan pilgrimage has become a vital part of faith life in our parishes and schools, as well as a cherished tradition that has been passed down through generations of families.

As our diocese prepared to walk in the footsteps of thousands of pilgrims of decades before, pilgrimage director for the Salford Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes, Fr Gerard FieldhouseByrne, urged pilgrims to hear and embrace Our Lady’s invitation: to “open our hearts and minds to her son, Jesus Christ, Our Saviour.”

Throughout the week, pilgrims took part in a range of prayerful activities, from daily Mass and liturgies, powerful processions, opportunities for reconciliation, private prayer, and more.

But throughout the liturgies, a common thread of love and service united all pilgrims as they came together in shared faith and friendship.

Volunteers and aspiring volunteers epitomised the joy and hope that can be found in our Christian call to love and to serve, as each and every pilgrim played a vital role in helping one another to encounter and experience the unique blessings and charisms of this most remarkable place of pilgrimage; teaching one another in this beautiful tradition and passing on the flame of faith to a new generation.

Underpinning all of this was the much-felt presence of Our Lady, constantly bringing - as promised - each pilgrim ever closer to her son.

As our pilgrimage drew to a close, Bishop John reminded pilgrims not to forget this most powerful presence of Our Lady in our lives on our return home.

He said: “One of our main focuses this centenary pilgrimage has been the idea that Our Lady came to listen to us, so that she can get to know us well, and be an intercessor for us to her son, and I think that’s such an important part of pilgrimage to Lourdes.

“And so, I encourage you: Follow in the footsteps of St Bernadette and talk to Our Lady, let her listen to you, let her get to know you, so she can draw you ever closer to her son, our Saviour.”

Pilgrims Of Hope Jubilee Year Pope Francis announced that this year will be a year of Jubilee – an event that happens every 25 years.

The 2025 Jubilee year themed “Pilgrims of Hope” begins in Advent 2024 and will run until the Feast of the Epiphany in 2026.

This Jubilee year is a special year of grace, in which the Catholic Church offers the faithful the possibility of asking for a plenary indulgence – a remission of sins for themselves or deceased loved ones.

Although this is a global celebration, Pope Francis has invited dioceses throughout the world to mark the Jubilee in their own unique way and we look forward to sharing a whole range of different activities, events, and resources with you during this Jubilee year.

This jubilee year in particular, every Catholic in our diocese is encouraged to be a pilgrim of hope by taking active part in their own community and maximising opportunities to live the Gospel in practical ways beyond the pews of our parishes.

At the heart of this uplifting celebration is the theme of pilgrimage – a quest to discover and leave behind all that separates us from God in the hope of finding renewed fulfilment, peace, and joy.

As well as our annual pilgrimages to Walsingham and Lourdes, there are also several special diocesan pilgrimages to Rome and Lindisfarne, for adults and young people. These pilgrimages offer the chance to celebrate the jubilee in some very special locations.

Our very own diocese is also steeped in incredible religious history. From local martyrs to personal devotions such as Our Lady of Manchester and Our Lady of Whalley - as well as remarkable stories from parishes across the diocese. We will be offering a number of ways individuals and groups can celebrate the incredible story of our Catholic past in this Year of Jubilee.

With options to travel overseas, local pilgrimages on our very doorstep, and resources for you to explore on your own or with your family or parish group, we hope to make prayerful pilgrimages an opportunity for all to experience.

You can find out more about our diocesan jubilee pilgrimages and other ways of celebrating the jubilee year in our diocese on https://dioceseofsalford.org.uk/news/jubilee-2025/

Salford Cathedral Restoration After over 170 years the cathedral needs major repair work and refurbishment. During it’s history some aspects of the original style and sacred ambience of the Cathedral have been lost.

The main aim of the Cathedral Restoration Project is to conserve the mother church of our diocese, renewing its exterior and interior, ensuring that the cathedral is fully sustainable and a source of spiritual inspiration for future generations.

On September 12th 2022, work officially began on the first phase to restore the cathedral’s exterior. The work coincided with the cathedral’s 175th anniversary in 2023 and is using modern-day techniques to preserve its sacred ambience and accommodate our growing congregation.

The first phase of the restoration focused on the exterior of the cathedral, which involved a complete re-roof, the re-pointing of the stonework and other masonry repairs, as well as remedial works to the tower and spire.

The second phase concentrates on the interior. We are aiming to restore the original internal character of the cathedral, reordering and relighting it, using sustainable technologies such as heat pumps, new insulation, and double-glazing each stained-glass window.

A temporary Cathedral has been opened, which is a one-minute walk away from the Cathedral, located on Great George Street, M3 6EH. You can follow Salford Cathedral’s restoration journey on https://salfordcathedral.co.uk/restoring-the-glory/progress/

Catholic Charismatic Renewal

189 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.

Legion of Mary

Societies

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

193 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.
