"Charity in truth, to which Jesus Christ bore witness by his earthly life and especially by his death and resurrection, is the principal driving force behind the authentic development of every person and of all humanity." (Pope Benedict XVI, Encyclical Letter Caritas in Veritate 29th June 2009)

Help save Lanherne
Father Sean Finnegan has received a letter from the Mother Superior of the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate, Lanherne Convent, Cornwall.
As Father Ray Blake points out this is a thriving community. As the Mother Superior says in her letter they are unable to own or purchase any property, including the one they now occupy, on account of their Franciscan vow of poverty.
I hope and pray a donor will come to their rescue.
