Please pray for the Reverend John Gilbert

Please say a prayer for Rev.John Gilbert, an Anglican vicar who has informed his parish that he is to join the Roman Catholic Church.
It appears that Rev. Gilbert will not be crossing the Tiber on board the great ship, Anglicanorum Coetibus, but under existing provisions.
After he announced the news to parishoners, Rev. Gilbert received  a spontaneous round of applause.
So, maybe...others might  be inspired to join along with him....?

The parish he leaves behind  is listed on the Forward in Faith website.
