Today is the memoria of B. Juvenal Ancina, a priest of the Roman Oratory who was sent to Naples by St Philip. He was later made Bishop of Saluzzo. May he pray for the Oratory, and especially for all Oratorian bishops (including our own Bishop Robert of Hexham and Newcastle). #oxfordoratory #oratory
