Often we feel
ineffective the face of so much secularism in our society and the rampant
consumerism coupled with what the Pope labels “The culture of death”. A
body of likeminded men will often achieve what is beyond the individual.
Issues can be discussed and action agreed and with the advantage of advice
from the chaplain results obtained. This is very much the approach of the
Northampton Council. As a result letters have been addressed to MP’s and
the opportunity taken of putting over to them and others the Catholic
viewpoint This is just one example of the council influencing society
however slightly. We can make a difference!
We very much appreciate the support of our wives and families who will often assist and accompany us at our social functions and religious events.
