An Act of Spiritual Communion


My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.

 Amen.

Archbishop Mark O’Toole and the Safeguarding Department of the Catholic Archdioceses of Cardiff - Menevia invite you to our LOUDfence event in Swansea. The aims of this event are to raise awareness of abuse and acknowledge the harm it causes to individuals, families and communities, whilst offering an opportunity for all, of all faiths and none, to join together, in solidarity, and show their support to all those affected by abuse. This year’s event will be held on Saturday October 19th , starting at noon with Mass, celebrated by Archbishop Mark in St David’s Church, St David’s Place, Swansea. This will be followed by light refreshments in the Church Hall and an opportunity for networking and for those who would like it, to access appropriate support. For those who might experience discomfort in the cathedral there is a neutral room without ecclesiastical décor available. What happens at a LOUDfence event? The main focus of a LOUDfence event is the tying brightly coloured (LOUD) ribbons and messages of support in public spaces, often on railings/ fences, to show support to ALL victims/ survivors of abuse. All are welcome and invited to tie ribbons and messages of support for survivors to the railings and/or to the dedicated LOUDfence tree inside the church, both on the day of the event or during the following week. What is LOUDfence? · LOUDfence, is a survivor-led initiative, which gives a voice to all those who have experienced abuse within a faith-based setting or have been affected by it, although it is open to everyone. · LOUDfence provides an opportunity for reflection on the times the Church and wider society has failed victims/survivors of abuse and to say we are truly sorry. · It calls us to commit ourselves to doing our utmost to be a place which is safe for all people. · LOUDfence is a process which aids gradual culture transformation through celebrating the virtues we hold valuable. · LOUDfence raises awareness in the community and in institutions, challenging the silence and shame which surrounds the issue of abuse. · LOUDfence seeks to support the survivor and validate their worth by celebrating the act of speaking out and truth telling. Background to LOUDfence LOUDfence originated in Australia as a solidarity movement in 2015. Here in the UK, it has become a survivor support and reconciliation movement, led by Antonia Sobocki in Cumbria since 2020. LOUDfence has now spread to other organisations, leading to events being held across the UK including in Plymouth, Northampton, Birmingham, as well as Lourdes and Paris in France, Rome and now is being adopted by faith communities in the USA. Our LOUDfence event in Swansea Throughout our event, members of the Safeguarding Team, clergy and laity will be offering a listening ear, support and guidance to survivors and anyone with concerns about abuse in any context.  All are welcome and invited!

On Saturday, September 14th this year, the Catholic Church in England and Wales - bishops, priests and people from all the dioceses gathered at St Mary’s College, Oscott, Birmingham for a day to renew and deepen devotion to the Eucharist. Adoremus was scheduled to coincide with the 53rd International Eucharistic Congress in Quito, Ecuador from September 8 th to 15th. Unlike Adoremus in Liverpool in 2018, this year’s event had limited numbers but each diocese was able to invite a coach-full of pilgrims. The group from the Archdiocese of Cardiff was co-ordinated by Fr. Michael Doyle, Dean of the Cathedral and included a representative from our parish, Jordan Kingsford. The Bishops’ Conference has now developed a series of online resources so that those who were not able to attend the event in September can benefit from the teaching and reflection which was shared on the day. The resources can be found here: https://www.cbcew.org.uk/category/adoremus/
