To Oxford...

...for the funeral of Mgr Graham Leonard at the Oxford Oratory. Impressive and moving. A beautiful Mass, and a long procession of clergy bearing candles as the coffin was carried out and a choir chanted "In paradisum deducant te angeli: tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres, et perducant te in civitate Jerusalem..."

A great gathering of people, including many of those who have been involved in the drama of events surrounding Anglicans and the Catholic Church over the past two decades...
