Our Dartford Mission was visited for its monthly Mass by Father Jonathan Foggin, Priest in Charge of St Francis of Assisi, Gainesville, Georgia, USA. The Mass was celebrated by the Vicar General and Bishop-Elect, Father Damien Mead, and afterwards Fr Foggin met with Dr Roy Fidge and those who attend the Mission.
The next day, whilst Canterbury was in the midst of 'purple fever' as the Lambeth Conference of the Church of England got under way, Fr Foggin attend the Parish Mass at St Augustine's Church, Canterbury, and was afterwards given a brief tour of the Cathedral and St Augustine's Abbey by Fr Mead.
