The Church of St. Ann |
e-mail: savefawley@hotmail.com
St.Ann`s Roman Catholic Church was designed by the architect Wladislaw Tadeusz George Jarosz and built between 1971-73 for the Polish community of the Congregation of Marian Fathers under the patronage of Prince Stanislaw Albrecht Radziwill.
28th of September 2009 it has been designated at Grade II (44th list of Buildings of Special Architetural or Historic Intrest) for the following principal reasons:
1. Of special architectural interest for its striking asymmetrical design with bold and interesting massing dominated by its angular roof.
2. A modern church of some quality in both its design and execution which displays a thoughtful use of materials.
3. Of special historic interest for its significance to the Polish Roman Catholic community and which has associations with the Polish Royal family as the resting place of Prince Radziwill and which was built as a memorial to his mother, Princess Lubomirska.

I am looking forward to the Sunday after Easter "Divine Mercy Sunday"
The Marian Fathers at Fawley Court, Henley-on Thames, Oxfordshire, England will have their last Divine Mercy Sunday this year 2009 in Fawley Court. They are relocating to London and we will miss them so much.
I found them nearly 10 years ago and shared first Saturdays there over the years. They have a beautiful shrine to "Jesus, Divine Mercy" I will so miss them and the shrine. They cant afford the millions of £££ it would take to upkeep Fawley Court. It is all in the hands of our dear Lord.
Our sad loss will be an offering in union with our Dear Lord for the sins and ingratitude of us all.
Please God another shrine will be found to honour Our Divine Lord and His Gracious Mercy offered to us all.

Evangelium Conference 2008
Explaining the Catholic Faith in the Modern World
8th – 10th August 2008, Fawley Court, Henley-on-Thames
The First Evangelium Summer Conference, sponsored by CTS, has been an astounding success, with young people describing it as ‘the best weekend of my life’, an ‘answer to prayer’ and an ‘inspiration and encouragement’.
Over the 8th – 10th August over one hundred young people assembled at the Shrine of the Divine Mercy, Fawley Court, for a series of talks, workshops and other activities addressing the crucial evangelistic question of our time – how to reach out and explain the Catholic Faith to people in the modern world.
It feels so wonderful that there is a place where we can gather together in faith, hope, love, and feel so much home.
The Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Anne, was founded by Prince Stanis?aw Albrecht Radziwi??, designed by the architect W?adys?aw T Jarosz. Prince S. Radziwi?? was burried in the church’s crypt, the entrance of which has the Radziwi??’s eagles, as requested by the Prince.
