The Catholic Toolbox

This week we discuss Deacon Brian Wehrle's journey from Anglicanism, to crossing the tiber through the Ordinariate, which Pope Benedict XVI established in 2011. He discusses the importance of the Ordinariate, its structure, Liturgy and identity as a bridge between everyone within the Latin Rite and the English speaking world and more interesting discussions.

A memorable celebration was held on St. Patrick’s Day to mark the launch of the powerful new book See Me: Street Poetry from the St. Vincent de Paul Society, with the author Jordan Grantham in attendance.

Jordan, a communications and public relations professional and dedicated member of the St Vincent de Paul Society in Australia, offered a compelling and heartfelt reflection on the Society’s mission to serve those experiencing homelessness and hardship. He provided valuable insights into how “Vinnies” operates both locally and globally, highlighting the depth and dignity of its outreach, as well as practical and accessible ways for individuals to become involved in meaningful service.

Drawing from his own experience, Jordan also explored the profound intersection of faith, creativity, and charity. He shared how simple yet powerful Catholic practices can be lived out through acts of service, artistic expression, and community engagement—bringing the Gospel to life in tangible ways.

Central to the evening was Jordan’s journey working alongside a diverse group of creative writers, many of whom have lived through significant hardship. Their voices, captured authentically and without filter, form the heart of this remarkable collection. Through poetry, they offer raw, honest, and deeply human reflections on struggle, resilience, and hope.

See Me is a moving and beautifully curated anthology—one that not only gives voice to the often unheard, but also invites readers to encounter the dignity of every person. It is a work that inspires, challenges, and ultimately touches the hearts of all who engage with it.

A call Anglicans to come home to the Catholic Faith.

We are delighted to welcome Very Rev. Stephen Hill VG, a former Anglican, now a Catholic priest for the Ordinariate, for a fascinating discussion on the Anglican Ordinariate Liturgy.

In this episode, Fr Stephen explores how the Ordinariate’s liturgical tradition—established by Pope Benedict XVI—preserves the rich spiritual and liturgical heritage of Anglicanism while fully expressing the Roman Rite within the Catholic Church. He reflects on the beauty, reverence, and theological depth of this form of worship and its role in the life of the Ordinariate today.

For all those who love the English Patrimony, this episode is not to be missed!

Come and visit the Ordinariate Liturgy:
