John Paul II facing Bishop Smith, Cardinal Hume in background centre.
UnknownMrs. Marigold VF Quihampton (EA Branch President) writing. Noting that from 1999 groups will no longer be allowed to hold special masses on a Sunday in St John's Cathedral. CWL holds the AGM on alternate Saturdays and Sundays every year in SJB. The Pope has asked that special masses for groups not be held on Sundays to avoid disrupting parish life. This is advice and is open to the incumbent Bishop's interpretation. The Norwich Section CWL is the oldest in the country, founded in 1912, and through its own resources has little impact on the Cathedral except for its use once a year. Hope to solve this problem with the Bishop's help.
Quihampton, Marigold VF Mrs (1927-2016)The Holy Father's "Dies Domini" is a solemn teaching document to which we all should respond with due respect and allegiance. It is a 95-page document dealing with the importance of Sunday and the Sunday Eucharistic celebration. Bp Peter asks that the CWL appreciate that a Sunday is not an appropriate day for the [AGM]. Suggest Saturday instead.
Smith, Peter David Gordon Rev LLB JCD (1943-2020)Sad to receive his letter - copied it to Fr Shryane and the CWL Regional Rep (Mrs Kathleen Mackenzie).
Invites the Bishop to their AGM in Ipswich for Mass and then luncheon and asked if he would say "a few words".
Accepts the invitation and opts for 6 May 2000 which will keep May clear for the visits to the Army in Germany and the International Military Pilgrimage to Lourdes.
