Archdiocese of Southwark

Then, according to Matthew and Mark, the disciples sing a hymn, after which they should have drunk the fourth and last cup of wine, but they don't.

And I remember reading a, a Facebook post about this for the first time by a wonderful priest of the Archdiocese of Southwark, Father David Howells, and it was he who pointed out to me, but I think you can also find it in, uh, John Bergsma and Brant Pitre and Scott Hahn, um, that Jesus doesn't drink this fourth cup.

We're not told about it.

Why is that? Why do they leave the upper room for the Mount of Olives? And strangely, in the Garden of Gethsemane, at the foot of the Mount of Olives, Jesus prays that this cup may pass from me.

Dear listeners, an apology that there was no episode last week.

Life has been manic.

Hello and welcome to This Turbulent Priest, the podcast hosted by me, Father Ed Tomlinson, Priest of the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, working out of the Archdiocese of Southwark.

Well this week I have been struck by two people offering us a message of hope.

The first was the Holy Father on his visit to France and in this episode I very much want to look at that papal visit to France and consider his message of hope that was offered.

Well, it's been a wonderful week for me personally.

I drove my lovely daughter up to York University and settled her in there.
