Ely to Walsingham Pilgrimage
From August 26th to August 28th there will be a pilgrimage from Ely to Walsingham, on the pattern of the Chartres Pilgrimage. Fr Redman was the chaplain last year, and I have the honour of filling his boots this time. This is an account of this by Dr Joseph Shaw, with some photos from last year and others here.
I hope to get a few together from the parish so we might travel to Ely together. If you're interested then please get in touch (stgeorgeswarminster@hotmail.co.uk).
All details and booking is on the LMS website. £60 (non LMS members), others £50, under 18s (as part of a family) and students £30.
I'll keep posting about this. You have to be able to walk the distance but the end result is well worth it.
Go to the website and have a look...

The Final Masses

Unconventional Group Photos
We had been to the hotel and changes and washed. Dressed in clean clothes and smelling sweetly for the first time in what seemed ages, off we set.
And then it poured down!

The final day
It's hard to say how or why this pilgrimage is so important, but it is.
When I get back tomorrow or the day after I'll put more details and a better account up. I have to tend to my feet now. And eat. And sleep. And check that everyone us still alive.
May the Blessed Virgin give you every blessing.
With great love, from Chartres.

Sunday night
This continued for the whole of the afternoon march. As I write at ten at night it has stopped. But everything is just a little damp.

The first day
We have been telling the pilgrims who have not been on the pilgrimage before how difficult it is and how it is tiring and rigorous, but all we have done so far is sit on a coach and sing songs!
Of course tomorrow will be different. Then the walk begins. But tonight we just lull them onto a false sense of security.
If they think that they will sleep well tonight, then just wait until tomorrow!
And it seems that the weather is picking up. Praise God!

At Westminster Cathedral
This is the group from Warminster and Dursley. We got to Westminster in great time and do had time time to unfurl the flag. It bears the Sacred Heart, the Immaculate Heart, the Keys of St Peter and our Bishops coat of arms.
As has happened in the past Holy Mass was offered in the crypt. Fr Byrne a priest Northampton Diocese offered Mass for the pilgrims. Fr Redman and myself offered private Masses.
