Lourdes is coming to us
A pilgrimage of the relics of Saint Bernadette of Lourdes, Bernadette Soubirous, is coming to the Archdiocese of Birmingham this October.
The relics will be visiting St Chad's Cathedral in Birmingham, Our Lady of Lourdes in Hednesford and the Immaculate Conception in Bicester over the weekend of 7 - 10 October.
A section of bone from Saint Bernadette's thigh will be taken to major cathedrals and churches of the dioceses of England, Scotland and Wales as part of a national pilgrimage.
The Shrine of Lourdes approached the English and Welsh bishops in 2021 with the offer of the pilgrimage of the relics and the bishops accepted.
The remains of Saint Bernadette are preserved in a shrine in the town of Nevers, 700 kilometres north of Lourdes.

St Anthony’s Diamond Jubilee
In June 2020, St Anthony’s School celebrated its Diamond Jubilee (60 years). We are looking or any historical images or memories that past pupils would be prepared to share (they must have permission from others involved in the pictures for us to be able to use them.).
To achieve this, we need your help. Please share this with anyone you know who has been part of the St Anthony’s school community over the years - we would love to hear their stories .
The celebration was to take place during the Autumn term 2020, but due to COVID-19 a new date is to be arranged.
