Rugby: Pray for Samoa


I was delighted to have the Somoan Rugby team at Mass yesterday. 
They sang after Mass, It was impressive to see so many devout young men, who think worshipping God on a Sunday morning is just a normal manly thing to do.
God bless them

A great example, indeed. I just posted a 'thank you' to them on their Facebook along with the link to your post, Father Ray.

Don't forget, Father, if they beat Wales, we will hold you responsible.

Thanks for the uplifting post.

Why did they clap? It was a hymn!

Paul told me about this and I think it's wonderful. I'm going to ask one of my students to write about it because it's brilliant.

Hi Father Ray, I am one of Sarah's students at Brighton Journalist Works and I'm covering part of the RWC for The Argus already. This is a wonderful event and I would love to write a story about it. Is there any chance you could drop me an email at jesswells@hotmail.com so that I could ask you a few questions?

Thanks,
Jessica Wells.

I do not do stories for the perfidious Argus. If you have an ounce of intgrity get another job, even sweeping the streets, rather than work for that vile rag.
