I shall be travelling to Preston on Sunday to attend a Pontifical Mass celebrated by Bishop Michael Campbell of the Diocese of Lancaster to mark the transfer of the Church of St Thomas of Canterbury and the English Martyrs to the care of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. It will become a shrine of the English Martyrs.
The Mass will be at 11.30, and the church is situated just to the north of the city centre on the Garstang Road. The church was built and later extended by Edward Welby Pugin, son of the great AWN Pugin, and remains very much unchanged.
I look forward to seeing the inside.
