Can you catch a spy and solve the murder of a prominent secret agent?  This very humorous WWII murder mystery will test your skills of observation and interrogation. A select group of operatives have volunteered to be trained as SOE agents ready to commit espionage in France. The MI5 inspector sent to discover the identity of the spy needs help in order to catch the murderer. Could you be the one to solve the mystery and identify the killer?

 1940s dress optional!

 Our Real Ale Bar, Cider and Wine Available will also be open from 6pm.  Don’t miss out!

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.)
