Monday, 30th May – 12 noon, Walsingham Abbey Grounds

Preacher: The Revd Andrew Mitcham – Vicar/Rector of the Benefice of Walsingham, Houghton St Giles and the Barshams & Guardian of the Shrine

Pilgrims have made the journey to Walsingham from all over Britain and the world since the 11th century. For many people their first visit to Walsingham is centred around the National Pilgrimage which takes place on the Spring Bank Holiday each year. This is a wonderful outdoor event with the famous procession of Our Lady from the ruined priory grounds, through the village to the Shrine.

There are two main services in the day (12 noon Mass and 2.30 pm Sermon, Procession and Benediction) which takes place in the grounds of The Abbey. Pilgrims are welcome to picnic in the gardens during the lunch interval (1.00 pm – 2.30 pm).

For further information please contact Revd. Charlene 01848 851334. Or visit the website:www.walsinghamanglican.org.uk (There will be car share available, or if you would be willing to drive.)

Service of Remembering and Sharing – Sat 5th March @ 2:30pm

Posted on: by:

Dear Friend
You are invited to a Service of Remembering and Sharing.
On: Saturday, March 5th 2016 at 2.30pm at St Mary’s Wilshaw
It is for parents who have suffered the loss of a child of any age and from any cause.
Siblings, grandparents, family and friends are also welcome.
We welcome people from all faiths or none, and any-one who has lost a child, whether it was yesterday or many years ago.
The service will give you the opportunity to stand alongside other people ‘who know’ the pain of losing a child, and want to publicly acknowledge and remember our lost children.
The service will include a short message of hope from clergy and stories or poems from people who have suffered the loss of a child.
Regardless of your faith or belief, we hope this will bring you some peace.
If you wish, bring a flower to place during the service in memory of your loved one.
For more information contact Jacqueline on 01484 663867
