The Lord showed me row upon row of people gathered in a Cathedral for the Requiem Mass of a Bishop: people who deserve to hear the Faith preached by Bishops in its fullness.

Christ said to me: "Don't be afraid. Who will speak to them if you don't?" He was asking me to speak up frankly but gently about excessive noise in church, which is our 'House of Prayer'.

Christ was pleased that I had plucked up courage to speak, as He wished, about behaving quietly in church, which is a place consecrated for prayer, where He is Really Present with us.

The Lord asks the Bishops to look back at their lives. Have they ever failed to speak out about morals, for example, for fear of upsetting people or driving them away?

Where families are faithful to the teachings of the Church, out of love for Christ and His pastors, they act as a seed-bed for vocations to the Priesthood and religious life. How can the Faith be handed on fervently by Catholics who don't believe or practice it?

Every Bishop will one day give an account to Christ, of what he has done to save the souls of those in his care when on earth, looking after Christ's flock. A wise Bishop reflects, today, on what he will one day say in Christ's presence.

In the early Church in Rome, faithful Christians did not offer incense to the Emperor, who was widely regarded as a God. They refused to do so. They honoured Christ as God - as we do today. And we Christians today should avoid participating in the worship of non-Christian religions.

A Christian marriage, lived as it should be lived, is like a lamp set on a hill, for society; a sacramental union full of grace. It provides a loving home for children who are not rejected by contraceptive use or abortion; it is a place of care for elderly relations, provides warmth for the lonely, and is an example to all of love and compassion.

Christ looks on with joy as a man who was once involved in violent and criminal activities now travels widely, speaking to young people about 'life in Christ', and working to lead them onto the right path, and away from all that is evil.

Christ spoke of someone who repented of the abortions he'd performed for years. The Holy Spirit is now at work in that man's life as he bravely speaks out, and draws people away from their 'pro-choice' stance.

No-one should despair about the evils of our age. In every age - as in ancient Rome and Nazi Germany - there have been great temptations to do wrong. Yet there is good too in every age - including our own; when, for example, good things as well as evil are sent right round the world on the internet. People far away hear about Christ.

Christ revealed Himself to me as Really Present in Westminster Cathedral, in all His glory, just as in my parish church at home.

Christ brought to my mind the image of St. Peter, in my local church, saying: St. Peter did not let the memory of his own failures stop him from preaching repentance to other people. Christ asked me not to let the memory of my own sins hold me back from prayer and brave words by which I can help others to repent of their bad behaviour and find peace in and with Christ.

There are public talks for enquirers at which speakers tell of their personal friendship with Jesus, which is strengthened by what they read in the Bible. The best talks are those given by faithful Catholics who present the whole Gospel message, including the life of the Church: that God became man, to save us; He founded a Church on those who were witnesses to His Death and Resurrection; the Church can tell us how to live, and help us to know Christ and achieve salvation; we can belong to her.
