St. Mary's Catholic Church Eskadale, Scotland
Few places can match the uniqueness of rural Highland churches -oases of tranquillity where man's spiritual need is complemented by the beauty of nature. For a visit that is both aesthetically and spiritually rewarding take the low road to Struy - a narrow winding road that seems to lead into a time-lock where the clear, sweeping river Beauly flows ribbon-like between banks of birches and plantations of firs. Beautiful Strathglass, incomparable in its ever-changing vistas and gentle melancholy. Suddenly, on top of a hillock, a building appears, dazzling in its white-washed harling, set with many-faceted windows: St Mary's of Eskadale, 'built on a scale of grandeur hitherto unknown in the Highlands.'
That the chapel was considered grand for its time betrays its denomination. All around, gravestones of its erstwhile priests, parishioners and benefactors tell of the faith of the dead. For St Mary's stands in one of the few districts in the Highlands where the inhabitants adhered to their Catholic faith, long after their Chief, The Chisholm, changed his allegiance. It is hard to believe that so large a Roman Catholic chapel was built as far back as 1827, only 34 years after the passing of the Catholic Relief Act which gave freedom of worship to Roman Catholics. Built by another Chief of the area, the 12th Lord Lovat, St Mary's is quite different from the few Catholic churches in existence at that time throughout the Highlands - usually barn-like structures, with no windows and a mud floor. No barn this, its windows filling the nave with a light that must have been a revelation to the tenants of the nineteenth century, the traceried rose window being added in the east gable in 1881: a constant source of wonder for the congregation of Eskadale who, at the turn of the century, numbered over 800.

Episode 1, Lead Kindly Light with Fr James Bradley and Dr Stephen Morgan
An interview conducted by Fr James Bradley of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham with Dr Stephen Morgan, a deacon in the diocese of Portsmouth and Dean of the Faculty of Religious Studies at the University of St Joseph in Macau.
Dr Stephen Morgan discusses the life and legacy of Blessed John Henry Newman and his importance in the life of the Church today in Newman’s library at Littlemore, Oxford.
In the first part of this 4 part series, deacon Stephen outlines Newman’s early life in Oxford. Born an Anglican in 1801 at then end of the Enlightenment period and at the beginning of the Romantic period, Newman’s intellect destines him for Oxford where he studies the Classics but suffers burn-out due to overwork. Despite this he is elected a Fellow of Oriel College and teaches there. He is ordained an Anglican priest and becomes vicar of the University church, where he is also responsible for the parish of Littlemore, then an agricultural community outside Oxford. He builds a church and school, following a calling to serve the community which repeats itself later in his life.
He follows the Oxford Movement, which sees the Anglican Church as over-rational yet Newman is also sceptical of the raw emotion of the Evangelical movement. As a backlash against rationalism, the Oxford Movement recognised the pre-Reformation church as the historical link back to Christ’s establishment of the church on earth. Despite this, Newman opposes the Catholic emancipation in the United Kingdom in 1829, seeing it as a betrayal of the established church. However, the seeds of doubt are sown in his mind about the integrity of the Church of England.

Within this parish church are the remains of the great Catholic Martyrs, Saints Thomas More and Bishop John Fisher, as well as the remains of Queen Consort Anne Boleyn, Lady Jane Grey, Katherine Howard, and the wicked Thomas Cromwell.
