appointment of Mgr Nick Hudson as our parish priest

Submitted by Admin on Fri, 14/06/2013 - 7:56pm

Message from Archbishop Peter

8th June 2013

I am delighted to be able to tell you that I will be appointing Mgr. Nick Hudson to be your new parish priest when the Jesuit Fathers relinquish the parish in the autumn. I'm sorry it has taken rather a long time to give you this news, but Mgr. Hudson wanted to be able to announce the name of his successor as Rector of the English College at the same time as his own appointment to the Sacred Heart parish, and he could not do so until the appointment of his successor was confirmed. Thank you for being so patient over the past few months. I'm sure you will give Mgr. Hudson a very warm welcome when he arrives.
