Part of East Anglia Bishops' Correspondence

Mrs S Walker writes about a proposed Ecumenical Centre at a quiet Cambridgeshire farm house. Currently more Anglican oriented than not, after listing several individuals involved, asks if the Cardinal would be interested in being a member of a Council of Reference to assure people that they are not a "weird cult".

Responding to a correspondent about situation at Downham Market. "I share your anxiety about Downham Market, and for some time now I have been endeavouring to find a viable solution to this unhappy problem." People with cars can drive to Oxburgh or Swaffham - but this is far from a happy solution.

Massive incoming post causes delay. Can debate the central point of the letter: the inadequacy of the New Order Mass compared to the Tridentine Mass. Vatican II debated extensively and profoundly and from there was promulgated the "Constitution of the Sacred Piturgy" in 1963 from which came the April 1969 Apostolic letter of Pope Paul. Fr Baker has known of the1970 Hierarchy directive and has deliberately put his Bishop in an impossible position but is following Canon Law; he could have acted summarily.

Rev K V Ensor's letter touched the Bishop deeply and precious to receive especially from an Evangelical Anglican. Shares the need not to tamper with doctrine under the rubric of spurious ecumenism. The doctrine of the RC Church is embodies in the New Order of Mass which is shared substantially with the Anglican Communion. The Church is not an abstraction; it is for the episcopate to discern what is to be done in the development of the Catholic faith.

Every effort, long hours and many miles involved in finding bridges to attempt to persuade Fr Baker to enjoy the privacy of the Downham Market presbytery. Bishop has for many months been on TV and in print trying to explain what is at stake. "... not just a question of a liturgical rite; it is a refusal to accept the renewed mission of the Church ..."

Provides a copy of Fr Dobson's letter. Clearly he has fulfilled his pastoral responsibilities - it may be that the old lady in question simply cannot remember the visits. Need to put the record straight and know the truth otherwise inaccurate and uncharitable remarks may be spread. Hope this will ease anxiety about care for the lady.

Understands the difficulties and is trying to do something about it: to relieve pressure on Deacon Matthews and to provide a priest for Sundays. Despite what is possible a full-time priest will not be provided for Dersingham.

Part of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour and St Edmund Parish, Hunstanton

Some very polarised views being received by the Bishop. Concerned that the sick and elderly should be visited. A meeting is to be convened between, Fr Dobson, Deacon Len Matthews, the Dean and the Vicar-General to discuss all the issues and to devise a workable solution for the pastoral care of all parishioners.

To Miss Preston; £45 cheque received from solicitors in Manchester for distribution to poorer clergy of the Diocese. Lists 11 priests. As Fr Ketterer was the young man, going to be a priest, known to Mrs Gosselin, he has therefore received the larger sum [£2; rest received £2.10]

Policy in the matter of parental choice in schools is available from HMSO. Means tests will apply when that choice involves an independent school. Fortunate that the Local Authority has agreed to meet some of the costs. The Bishop does not wish to be burdened by such letters when the correct approach is via the parish priest. Need to convince the LEA that the local school cannot meet the daughter's educational needs.
