An evening with Jacques Fesch - another Good Thief?
1 October, 6.30pm for 7pm start - Amigo Hall, St George's Cathedral
The Archdiocese invites everyone to a special evening exploring the extraordinary conversion story of Jacques Fesch, on Thursday 1 October at St George's Cathedral (Amigo Hall).
Fesch, a young Frenchman executed in 1957 for the murder of a police officer, underwent a profound conversion to faith during his imprisonment - a journey from murder to mercy that has since become a powerful witness to the transformative power of grace.
Archbishop John Wilson will give an introduction and reflection, followed by a talk from Fr Rupert Allen CO, author of a book on Fesch's life and conversion.
The evening runs from 6.30pm for a 7pm start, concluding at 9pm. Refreshments will be available, and all are welcome to attend.
Date and time: Thursday 1 October, 6.30pm for 7pm
Location: St George's Cathedral (Amigo Hall), Lambeth Rd, London SE1 6HR
