Radio Maria England celebrated three years of broadcasting on Saturday, November 5, in Cambridge at St Laurence's Catholic Church. As prayer is always at the heart of all of Radio Maria's activities, the event began with the First Saturday Devotions, adoration and confessions. Fr Toby Lees OP then celebrated Mass, joined by Fr John Minh and Fr Stefan Park OSA, a RME trustee.

The congregation then enjoyed a lovely bring and share lunch in the parish hall. A whole host of listeners, volunteers, and supporters came along, both local and from further afield. However, the single largest group, who were in fine voice, were the Women of Christ's Love group from London along with all their delightful children.

The event concluded with the men walking together to Midsummer Common in Cambridge to pray the rosary as part of the Men of St Joseph's Rosary Rally - a beautiful witness as men of all ages knelt in prayer, honoring the Mother of God.

Radio Maria England is a 24-hour station. It is part of a worldwide network of more than 80 radio stations on all continents. Radio Maria offers a voice of hope and encouragement. Radio Maria responds to Jesus' invitation: 'Go out to the whole world and proclaim the Gospel to every creature' (Mk 16,15). We try to embrace all the charisms that the Holy Spirit is bestowing upon the local and universal Church in our time. Interaction is essential to Radio Maria. They invite listeners to share their concerns and joys and reach out to those who are among the poorest and the most marginalized. Creating a family spirit, also by involving volunteers and listeners, Radio Maria accompanies every person who hungers for God on their journey of faith. 'Where there is even just one person, there Radio Maria must also be', said Emanuele Ferrario, former President of the World Family of Radio Maria.
