Totus Tuus - To Jesus through Mary.

To impel the beauty of the new evangelization – this is the charism of the Heralds of the Gospel; Its founder, Monsignor João Dias explains."The Heralds of the Gospel is a private association of faithful with a very special charism based essentially on three points: the Eucharist, Mary and the Pope."

The Heralds of the Gospel are an International Association of the Faithful of Pontifical Right, the first to be established by the Holy See in the third millennium, during a ceremony which occurred during the feast of the Chair of St. Peter (February 22) in 2001.

The Heralds of the Gospel strive to be instruments of holiness in the Church by encouraging close unity between faith and life, and working to evangelize particularly through art and culture. Their apostolate, which differs depending upon the environments in which they work, gives pride of place to parish animation, evangelizing families, providing catechetical and cultural formation to young people, and disseminating religious Iiterature.

The Heralds of the Gospel in England and Wales joyfully welcome Pope Benedict XVI' to Britain.



It is with the greatest joy that we welcome the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVII. In the words of Paschal Uche who, after the Mass in Westminster Cathedral this morning, welcomed the Holy Father in the name of the young people of Britain today, we say:

Dear Holy Father,

It is a privilege and a great pleasure to welcome you …. Your visit brings us together – it is like a family reunion - and we are very pleased to see you.…. It is our prayer that your visit inspires us to be “saints of the third millennium.”

For many of us before today you were a face on the television or a picture in a Church but today we behold you face to face and (we) would like to express (our) profound and heartfelt gratitude for your visit.

May God Bless you.
