The Oratory is very close to God.

In 1978 I taught at the school taking the children to mass on one day I remember feeling very proud. But London is a very tough place to be. I remember being on a motor cycle heading down Chingford Road in 1975 I stopped at a zebra crossing for pedestrians and from behind me a large car ploughed into me. As I went through the air I had a vision of Jesus the Christ in heaven to cut a long story short I was not killed but had a soft landing as if angels had saved me. I was very lucky to have worked with the boys who are now grown up. Ranging now in age from 58 to 65 years. I often think of the boys living in London so close to God. That to me is how I remember London. God bless you all. It is important to remember that Christ ascended into heaven and that he can return to earth when it is time.
