Some good news for the church for a change. 

People returning from church as congregations begin to dwindle at the onset of the Summer holiday period, conscious of all the negative news about the church, often reported with apparent relish by the secular media, can marvel at the estimated 3 million Catholic pilgrims who occupied Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro to catch a glimpse of Pope Francis.

  1. I know Ancient Briton. A most glorious sight to behold in our spiritual wilderness. If it is permitted, I am reminded of scripture:

    " But God" Acts 13:30 - "But God who is rich in mercy because of His great love...! Eph2:4

    Keep the faith brother.
