At the Dome of Home, the Shrine Church of Saints Peter and Paul and St Philomena, we continue to make progress both to the fabric of the church and with the continued growth in the congregation both in size and, hopefully, spiritually. We continue to renovate this huge church and for this we have manage to secure various Heritage Lottery grants. One of the conditions of the Heritage Lottery grant has been that we reach out to the local community; they do not seem to mind that we are a Traditional Catholic Church, which suits us very well. They have helped us provide a heritage book, heritage days, tours and an education pack. We need to provide a certain amount of the funds ourselves - for example the cost of hiring someone to do a detailed structural survey of the dome was £3,000! This was not covered by the HLF grant. Any donations to help us cover this cost would be very much appreciated, small or large. But we continue with our grant applications. The dome and sanctuary still need major work but we must, again, raise a proportion of the money ourselves. Please contact Anne Archer, our project manager, contactus@domeofhome.org for further information - or Rachel Buckley, our engagements officer, to find out more or to become a member of the Friends of SSPPP. Alternatively, contact Canon Montjean on 01516 836822 or email chn.montjean@icrsp.org. The Masses at Birkenhead Carmel continue at 7:45 on Thursday mornings.
