Good News for Hull

 It has been announced that Fr William Massie will be staying on at the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes and St Peter Chanel in Hull.  This will allow the Latin Mass at 7.30 on Thursday evenings to continue.

It had been expected that Fr Massie would move to York, but this transfer has been cancelled.  It is very good news for supporters of the Latin Mass in Hull.
