Last evening I attended the priesly ordination of Fr Robin Farrow, in St Joseph's church in Guidford. He was ordained by Archbishop Peter Smith.
He had a cake from Lucy Shaw Cakes.

Fr Farrow was presented on the top, and the Holy Family on the base.

The inscription round the side reads: 'A priest is not a priest for himself; he is a priest for you'. This was quoted by Pope Benedict XVI in his address opening the Year for Priests; it was said first by St Jean Vianney, the Cure of Ars.

Support the work of the LMS by becoming an 'Anniversary Supporter'.
Great news. I have been praying every day to SS John Fisher and Thomas More to guide Father Farrow safely through to ordination and to bless his ministry. A thanksgiving Mass coming up for the intention of Father Farrow and his family.
