SUMMARY:Covid-19 and  Catholic Social Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Lockdowns\, gigantic fiscal deficits\, tough legal restrictions and requirements: rich and poor nations have responded dramatically to the pandemic. Were these public health measures implemented in just ways? Edward Hadas will explain how Catholic Social Teaching can help answer that question. \nEdward Hadas is a Research Fellow at Blackfriars Hall\, Oxford. His book Counsels of Imperfections: Thinking Through Catholic Social Teaching will be published in the autumn by Catholic University of America Press. He is also a financial journalist who writes regularly for Reuters Breakingviews. \nThe event is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Church Open for Private Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Procedures to follow\nThere are a number of procedures which have to be followed in order to keep everyone safe.

Please note the following: \n\nUse the hand sanitiser provided as you enter and leave the church;\nFollow the one way system;\nPlease wear a face mask;\nDo not touch any statues or altars;\n\nWe are beginning to plan for the resumption of the public celebration of Holy Mass\, but there can be no communal or group prayers in the church at the moment. Please note that we cannot hear confessions. Confessions are being heard at the Oratory between 5 and 5.30pm Monday-Saturday. \nIf you are displaying any cold or flu symptoms\, please do not enter the church building. We would also advise those most vulnerable to refrain from visiting the church. \nThere are no toilet facilities available. \nSpiritual resources for visiting the Blessed SAcrament\nA range of resources are available online for visits to the Blessed Sacrament. The Catholic Truth Society have a number of books on sale that you might find useful\, including this companion to Eucharistic Adoration which contains prayers\, readings\, and devotional images.

SUMMARY:The true heart of economics
DESCRIPTION:What should economists study? Common answers include markets\, money\, scarcity\, productivity\, prosperity\, distribution\, and statistics. All of those are relevant\, but Edward Hadas will propose a more radical starting point: the Great Exchange of gifts: of human labour to the world and of consumption goods and services from the world that labour has humanised. \nEdward Hadas is a Research Fellow at Blackfriars Hall\, Oxford. His book Counsels of Imperfections: Thinking Through Catholic Social Teaching will be published in the autumn by Catholic University of America Press. He is also a financial journalist who writes regularly for Reuters Breakingviews. \nThe event is free and open to all. \n

SUMMARY:Las Casas Annual lecture 2020: Patrick Watt
DESCRIPTION:A Christian vision of ‘development’\nTraditional approaches to social and economic ‘development’ are being questioned in a world where hundreds of millions of people live in extreme poverty\, while humankind also consumes beyond its environmental limits. Can Christianity offer both a critique of mainstream approaches to development\, and a more positive vision of human flourishing? \nPatrick Watt is the Policy and Campaigns Director at Christian Aid\, and has advocated and written widely on international development\, both for Non-Governmental Organisations and for the World Bank. \nThis event is free and open to all.
