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.

As we bid farewell to the Holy Father, may our prayers and profound thanks go with him.


Sadly the Holy Father’s four day visit to Britain has come to an end after an exhausting schedule that encompassed three open air masses, eight speeches, and the beatification of Cardinal John Henry Newman.

As Pope Benedict prepared to board his plane for his return flight to Rome, the Prime Minister, David Cameron thanked him for what he described as an "incredibly moving four days" He said that it had been an honour to have the pope in Britain.

"You have really challenged the whole country to sit up and think, and that can only be a good thing, …. Your Holiness, your presence here has been a great honour for our country. ..”

May we all continue to thank God for this great blessing for our country, and pray that we may all respond fully to the many great graces which have been granted to us during these wonderful, and blessed, four days.
