Some Heralds of the Gospel, including five Companions, were present at St John’s Cathedral, Portsmouth, to welcome the Relics of St Thérèse at the beginning of a month long tour of the country.
They participated in the morning’s Opening Liturgy which involved children and representatives of all the Catholic schools of the Diocese. In the afternoon, Bishop Crispian Hollis celebrated Mass - with Anointing of the Sick. Later there was the opportunity for all present to venerate the Relics.
The relics will travel round the country starting in Portsmouth and finishing four weeks later in London. They will visit 28 venues, including Catholic cathedrals, churches and Carmelite convents.
