WHY WE STAY - SHARING SIGNS OF HOPE
In this video, Passionist priest, Nicholas Postlethwaite, speaks encouragingly about starting DIY groups and how this is the way forward for our church. Nicholas reminds us of Pope Francis's words that he felt Jesus was knocking on the church door to get out, not on the outside waiting to get in.
So many of you have been asking us:
Is there anyone else that you know of in my area?
Root & Branch DIY is a way for you to take the initiative
for reform in your part of the world.
If there’s no-one in your area, would you like to be a Contact for others?
It can be as simple as getting together for a cup of tea,
if you want to work for an inclusive, just and safe Church together.

Here’s a simple template for gathering a couple of like-minded friends
who realise that we can’t wait for permission to change.
We need to start living the Church we want to be:
inclusive, just and safe.
