Welcome to Our Lady and St. John Catholic Church

Today, 13 October, is the Feast of S. Edward the Confessor, K.C.
S. Edward is the Patron of kings, difficult marriages, separated spouses, and the British Royal Family. He is best known as the king who rebuilt the Collegiate Church of S. Peter at Westminster, then called S. Peter’s Abbey. We know it best as Westminster Abbey. It is a Royal Peculiar under the direct responsibility of the Sovereign.

O God, Who hast set upon the head of thy blessed Confessor King Edward a crown of everlasting glory, grant unto us, we beseech thee, so to use our reverence for him here upon earth, as to make the same a mean whereby to come to reign with him hereafter in heaven. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. ... See MoreSee Less
