Therese in Salford Cathedral

Full report at here, at the visit blog, but a couple of quotes below (not related to the photo). The report suggests that 20000+ visited the relics at Salford Cathedral during a 24 hour period. The Manchester Evening News report is here, with a link to their own picture gallery.

“We drove down from Glasgow early this morning and will drive back there this evening. Yes, it’s a long way to come, but we love St Therese and decided that we can’t yet go to Lisieux, but we could come to see her while she’s here in England, so we just climbed into the car and drove.”

“I have seen that faith is part of the DNA of people in this part of the country”, added a Sister who has travelled from Lisieux to accompany the relics.
