There’s something very unexpected when you meet Harry Clark. It’s not just that this affable 24-year-old won the second series of BBC1’s hit show, The Traitors, by proving to be the most devious game player of that group.
It’s also that the tattoos of this former soldier are all about his Catholic faith. He proudly shows me one on his hand, complete with a cross, saying: “Be who God meant you to be and you’ll set the world on fire” .
...“You can be so lost but then you are found”, he tells me over Zoom. “God is the only one who knows everything about me. It’s like a vase that shatters and God is the one that can put together the shards.”
...This Easter, thousands of people are going to be received into the Catholic Church, and substantial numbers of them are under the age of 35.
Some are already Christian, moving to the Catholic Church from other denominations, including the Church of England. But many will be baptised, having previously had either only a vague belief in God or none at all.
In the biggest Catholic diocese, Westminster, at least 500 people will become Roman Catholics this Easter, with half being baptised, while around 450 will do so in the Diocese of Southwark.
...“They are not extremist or fundamentalist, but they have been looking for something and the words they use a lot about the Catholic Church is coherence and consistency”.
...“Catholic theology has a coherence for me. It makes sense, gives me a connection with Christ,” he says. “For me it is a lifeline and a reason to continue,” he says. “I can confidently say that Christ is the light of the world”.

last time the Catholic faithful went head to head with a muslim invasion the world got the crusades. not sayin’ that’s a bad thing.
Will they get free armored suits, horses and big swords?
Once we get a decent Pope instead of a homo commie, we can take back all the cathedrals and property Henry VIII stole. That’s why Anglicans love muzzies. Both ‘religions’ were founded by murdering psychopaths.
The British Catholics had better start researching Priest Holes.
This time it won’t be Anglicans coming for their priest it will be Muslims.
They need another Crusade. Most don’t realize the Crusades occurred because Islam had conquered and occupied much of Europe, Spain, Italy ( they beheaded a couple hundred bishops in the Vatican),…..the Crusaders rightfully expelled them, then took the fight all the way to Jerusalem.
armored suits and big swords...yes. as for horses there will be a cadre of followers with halves of coconuts.
Left-wing news coverage would have us believe England is Muslim.
A refreshing and wonderful article.
Thank you.
And I thought England embracing current Catholicism was due to their closeted buggering and a gay pope, not the gay goat lovers. All in the entire mix makes for Strange Bed Fellows.
