What England’s Martyrs Teach Us Today | Inside London's Oldest Catholic Church

From the Catholic Truth Society


Who are the saints and martyrs represented in our churches, and what can their lives teach us today? Join Fr Lawrence Lew as he journeys into the hidden Catholic history of England through the ancient Church of St Etheldreda in Ely Place, Holborn, London's oldest Catholic Church. Hidden behind quiet Georgian facades in the heart of the city stands a powerful witness to the faith, sacrifice, and perseverance of the English saints and martyrs.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
