Keep your fake selfserving "religion " in the USA. And keep this fool as well, he's left Britain because he knows there's plenty of gift to be done on the wrong side of the pond

Donated. Thanks for highlighting. Hope we can preserve Torsa for Christendom. Will the owner still sell if we can't raise enough money?

As a Roman Catholic I say this is a fantastic idea! The early monks would do exactly that: find a remote place to live, worship God and do missionary work. You can find traces all across Britain of former monasteries and holy men and women from the early middle ages. God bless you Calvin! I believe your apostolate will be more effective if you/your community return to the Roman Catholic Church, the true Mother Church. Praying for this project and the unity of the Church - One Holy and Apostolic Catholic Church! May Britain be the pioneer of the revival of the Catholic faith...

Thank you for your prayers, I appreciate your support. But I am not apostate. If you would like the Vatican to partake in a similar project, great, I would love to see it. Unfortunately, they are working in the opposite direction at the moment. The last thing I saw was in 2017 when they sold off Florentine Church land to Mohammedans to build the first mosque in Florence. So, they could do with your prayers, too.

Hi Calvin, sorry that was a typo! APOSTOLATE is the correct word (just edited in message above). I agree with you that the current papacy is going in a wrong direction. But don't be put off by that. The history of the Church has numerous holy popes. There have been a couple of anti-popes too. But the Church has always survived all attacks from outside and within. The Vatican needs clearing up. We are praying... God bless you.

This is wonderful. Keep praying! My wife and I became Christian last year, and prayer was perhaps a bit awkward at first. Now we can't imagine living without our morning and evening prayers and the graces that come of it.

All the best with it, I've come off twitter as it is unsafe with people doing years in prison for " Islamophobic tweets" and the country as a whole is going down the gutter very quickly. I knew Starmer's government would be bad, but never realised just quite how grim it would be.

What a beautiful idea! But it won’t be big enough though. Are they any more islands for sale? 😊

God doesn't exist. You won't get your island you grifter.

I don't know how to reach you, but I had a similar idea, before learning of this island buying proposal and have been wanting to get in touch. My idea is for you to crowd fund buying up old churches. If there isn't enough call to keep them in service as churches, then they could be used to do God's work in the community, by turning them into free community centres or kids play groups or homeless shelters or rehab facilities other good work, whilst also having Christian information in them and promoting Christianity through their work.
