Anyway, I fancy a conversation. I’ve been thrown under the bus by a degenerate friend, and really need some actual Christians to soothe the pain.

Everyone does, but I need to pass this last one to become a lawyer

Well, do pray to St Aquinas.

What do you want to talk about?

I'll do it, thanks for the advice

I suppose I can converse

It'll stop me conversing with those women I should know better about.

Hahaha, I was hoping one of you would have something to talk about.

Well...

Oh! My new bishop is going to be enthroned on Saturday, and I get to sing in the choir!

Is he sound?

A friend of mine is being Ordained on Friday

Yes, despite being a Jesuit.

I can't make the Ordination, so I'm going to his first mass on Saturday

Good for him!

Indeed

Pretty sound guy

Hey that's really cool

Is he a diocesan priest or with a society?

Or order?

oratorian

I'm still quite new to this busiess

so I don't quite know what that would fall under

Ah, Oratory of St Philip Neri?

Uh huh

My confirmation saint, no less

I do like the Oratory

Jesuit bants is on a high at the pub.

And there's a Dominican college 10 paces down the way

Yes, well, nobody really knows what the Oratory falls under. Not even the Oratory priests themselves are too sure.

The Church has them officially recognised as a “community of secular priests”.

Interdasting

I’m an Oratorian lay brother myself, so I’m always very excited to talk about them.

Hence the Fr Faber profile picture.

I'm just a guy who got baptised two months ago

With the Oratory?

Yep

Ah, which one?

Didn't really know anything else at the time.

The one in Oxford.
