Roman Catholicism is the largest of the world religions,
Catholic meaning
universal. One of the first Bishops of the Midland District was John Milner, from Sedgley. The main act of worship is the
Mass. A Church
school in every parish is important to the Catholic church.
SS Peter & Paul is the oldest
Post-Reformation Catholic Church in England.
Giffard House, 1733, was once a covert meeting place for (illegal) Catholics.
Consecrated in 1855 in a densely populated Catholic parish, the church, now
isolated from its community, still has 500 worshippers weekly: many of Irish,
Italian, East European stock, with many native English, some “cradle”
Catholics, some converts.
To Him who sits on the throne
and to the Lamb
be blessing and
honor and glory and might
for ever and ever. (Revelation 5:13)
Jesus Christ is Head of
the Church, the Bishop of Rome his vicar on earth.
