Blessed John Henry Newman
"Three great and loyal friendsof mine, Frs Joseph Gordon,Ambrose St John and Edward Caswall now lie side by side at Rednal,and I put them there."So wrote newman in 1878.He firmly believed that without their support,the work of the Oratory would not have been a success.That is why he wished to be buried with them-people who he believed were Saints.His and their remains would be shaped into a Cross.Sanctity and the Cross-that is surely the message of Newman for our times.
