Page 2 The Vine July 2014 Hallam The Holy Father, Pope Francis, has appointed as the new Bishop of Hallam, the Right Reverend Ralph Heskett CSSR, until now the Bishop of Gibraltar. Bishop Heskett thanked the people and priests of Gibraltar as he announced his leaving for Hallam. “My first visit to Gibraltar was in 1981. I think that it is fair to say that I immediately fell in love with Gibraltar and its people. Today, 33 years on, I am still in love with Gibraltar and its people! “So it is with great sadness that I announce that I must take my leave. I have been asked by Pope Francis to be the next Bishop of Hallam in the UK in succession to Bishop John Rawsthorne. “I came to Gibraltar to be bishop in a spirit of obedience to Pope Benedict and now, I must leave in a spirit of obe- dience to Pope Francis to take up the new mission he has entrusted to me. To be asked to pastor and shepherd of two different diocesan families is a privilege I do not deserve and a responsibility I feel inadequate to undertake. This will be a great personal challenge for me as I leave Gibraltar and the priests and people I love. It is also an invitation to be generous in serving the diocese of Hallam. “The Right Reverend John Rawsthorne, Bishop of Hallam, said he was delight- ed at the appoint- ment, having known Bishop Heskett as a parish priest in Liverpool. “He will fit in very well in Hallam. He has a lot of parish experience as he is a very fine pastor as well as being a good preacher. The peo- ple of this Diocese are very warm and welcoming. They will take him to their hearts in no time at all. My 17 years here have been marked by the welcome and close collaboration of all of the priests and the people of Hallam.” Born in Sunderland in March 1953, Bishop Heskett was ordained to the priesthood on 10 July 1976. From 1987 to 1990 he was Superior of the Redemptorist Community at Kinnoull, Perth, Scotland and direc- tor of Missions. He then served as a parish priest in Liverpool and Southwark, and was a member of the Mission Team. The Catholic Grandparents Association (CGA) was formally launched in England and Wales on the 9 th May 2014. The event held at Westminster Cathedral Hall, was attended by around 100 representatives from all over England and Wales. Along with many people from both dioceses and parishes there was also a strong representation from Marriage Care, The Catholic Women’s League, Grandparents Association and Familias, the National Association for Diocesan Marriage and Family Life Coordinators. Following the welcome from Bishop John Arnold (Westminster), Catherine Wiley, Founder of the CGA gave an encouraging speech which charted the birth and history of the association and how it has continued to develop globally over the past twelve years. The Association is now active in many countries including the Philippines, Australia and Malta and very soon it will launch in the United States. She said that she was ‘overjoyed that the Association is now formally launched in England and Wales, in the country where it all began’. She paid tribute to Bishop Kieran Conry who initiated the CGA in his Diocese of Arundel and Brighton under the direction of Katherine Bergin, Diocesan Coordinator for Marriage and Family Life. Katherine is now the National CGA Coordinator for England and Wales. From this beginning followed a pilot in Arundel and Brighton which was led by Christine Evans and currently has set up six groups across the diocese. Cardinal Vincent Nichols, who had taken time out from his schedule to join the launch, said that what had particularly struck him were the two principle aims of the Association, to keep prayer at the heart of the family and to pass on the faith. Speaking of his own experience, he said that ‘Grandparents are often the real point at which creativity is introduced. Sometimes things between parents and their children are not always that easy. You (grandparents) know because you’ve done it…..the grandparents are like… an escape valve. You know, you can deal differently with the children.’ In conclusion he added, ‘So thank you very much for the Association, thank you very much for those two key objectives that you have set yourselves, they are intensely relevant to this moment in the history of the life of the Church. And I hope the Association now goes from strength to strength. Thank you all very much indeed.’ The day concluded with Mass celebrated by Bishop Kieran Conry.
