It was a unique moment for the bishops of England and Wales, who were finishing their week together in Rome for their five-yearly meeting with the Pope.

The bishops wished to visit two places connected to the life of Cardinal Newman.

This took them to the Chapel of the Three Kings and the Cardinal Newman chapel inside Missio headquarters near the Spanish Steps, where Newman celebrated his first Mass.

On February 3 the bishops, led by the President of the Bishops' Conference, Archbishop Vincent Nichols of Westminster, and accompanied by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, were hosted by Cardinal Ivan Dias, head of the Congregation for the Evangelisation of Peoples, and the staff of Missio.

Cardinal Dias, Cardinal Murphy-O'Connor and Archbishop Nichols concelebrated Mass in the Chapel of the Three Kings, where Newman was ordained a Catholic priest.

The Archbishop of Westminster spoke about "the constant call to conversion" that resides in the heart of everyone.
