Rev Fr Gwilym Evans FSSP - First Masses of Thanksgiving

On Saturday 18th June, Archbishop Joseph Haas of Vaduz (Liechtenstein) ordained Gwilym Evans to the Priesthood.

Fr Evans FSSP, who is originally from Wales, was supported by the LMS during his time at the FSSP Wigratzbad Seminary and the LMS chairman Dr Joseph Shaw and many others from the UK attended the ordination in Bavaria. He has been on many traditional events in England over the years, particularly the Latin Mass Society's walking pilgrimage to Walsingham: and will do so again this year.

Fr Evans will be offering a number of First Masses of Thanksgiving in the UK.  Those confirmed so far are:

• St Mary's, Warrington on Sunday 7th August, at 11am
• St Andrew, Belford Road, Edinburgh on Monday 8th August, at 7.15pm
• St William of York, Reading on Sunday 14th August, at 11am
  in the presence of The Most Reverend Philip Egan, Bishop of Portsmouth

Dates of First Masses in London and in Cardiff
to be announced at a later date
