More than 2000 years of faithful priestly service was represented at lunch in the Beda today as 43 priests from England and Wales who have been ordained 40, 50 and 60 years visited us. The group are in Rome, staying at Pallazzola for the week to celebrate these milestones in their life as priests. As in previous years, the joy and fulfillment in their ministry shine out as a wonderful example to our present students of what is to come. Ad Multos Annos to them and to others whose witness and example are an inspiration to us all.
