January saw the passing of two priests whose lives and spirituality have nourished and inspired many in the J&P community – Fr Owen Hardwicke and Fr Tom Cullinan.

The March issue of the NW NJPN E Bulletin looks back on their lives and pays tributes to their ministry. Thanks are also paid to retiring NJPN Administrator Ann Kelly after 12 years of service and a warm welcome to her successor Geoff Thompson. A rousing talk by activist Phil Kingston on Christian Climate Action and the campaigning group Extinction Rebellion is also featured alongside a talk by regular contributor Ellen Teague of the Columban JPIC Team. There are reports on Holocaust Day, Child Trafficking, Pax Christi, Prison Sentencing Reforms, a Welcome Mass for LGBT+ Catholics and their families led by Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Women Deacons, Clerical Abuse and a wealth of Lent Resources plus a packed Diary.
