Ad Limina

Bishop Kieran is currently in Rome with the rest of the bishops of England and Wales in their visit Ad Limina Apostolorum. This is the meeting, which normally happens about every 5 years in which they meet with the Pope and the various other offices in Rome to speak about their work, joys and concerns in their dioceses and in the country as a whole. The visit also includes masses at the tombs of St Peter and St Paul, and it is from this that the visit gets its name - Ad Limina Apostolorum literally means 'to the threshold of the apostles.
