Yesterday we had a very special service at the Church of the Sacred Heart. Bishop John Hine, Auxiliary of Southwark, presided at the ceremony for the 'Ordination to the Sacred Order of Deacons' when Robin Farrow, formerly an Anglican priest, was received into the Catholic Church's Holy Orders. Concelebrating with the Bishop were the Parish Priest Rev Kevin Dring and several senior clerics, plus 15 other priests, mainly from Brighton & Hove Deanery.
Robin is a familiar and well-loved figure, living next door to the Church with his wife Caroline and his daughters. In recent years he has been a familiar figure at Mass, usually with one or more infant daughters in tow. Anyone sitting near him can testify that he has the most melodious and sweet singing voice!
Here are four of the photos that I took of the ceremony.
