The episcopal Ordination of Bishop-Elect David Waller will take place at Westminster Cathedral at 11.00am on Saturday 22nd June, the Feast of St John Fisher and St Thomas More. The principal consecrator will be His Eminence Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith.
More details will follow in due course. Also please note:
Friday 21st June 6.00pm Solemn Evensong and Benediction together with blessing of episcopal insignia at Our Lady of the Assumption Warwick Street.
Sunday 23rd June at the 10.30am Solemn Mass at Our Lady of the Assumption Warwick Street, Bishop David, as he will then be, will take possession of the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham.
We are giving you as much notice as possible as we know some of you will need to book train tickets and make arrangements to stay in London overnight. Please advertise these dates widely and encourage the lay faithful to attend if possible.
More details will be available in the coming weeks.
Please pray for Bishop-elect David as he prepares to take on this new responsibility.
