Walsingham Oct 2008

Pilgrimage - A long journey or search, especially one of exalted purpose or moral significance.

Walsingham has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. Visit the website for more details.



Here are a few pictures from our pilgrimage to Walsingham. Every year we try to go on a Parish pilgrimage to Walsingham.

The gardens are very peaceful and a new outside altar has been built which is quite impressive












This year I resided in the Recheldis House which turned out to be very comfortable and had everything you needed.
Most of your time is spent in the Church located in the grounds, first mass was at 7.30am. Then breakfast in the restaurant.

Inside the Holy House;


One day the group split up and visited different area's around Norfolk, I went to Cromer, to the seaside.




On the pier in the wind, we lost a couple on here :o)



As always it is an effort to leave Walsingham, but there's always next year to look forward to.

Things I Have Learnt in Life

That we can't judge others because we don't know how the world looks through their eyes - just wish I could live up to that!

Don't jump to conclusions without hearing all sides of an argument

Church Porch Rendering Project

A toilet block built in breeze block was erected on the front of the Church here at All Saints.
Can you believe what it looks like.
This is the first part of the rendering process, I'm searching for the picture I had of the breeze block.
It's now all smooth it even looks better now.
The next stage is the Terracotta render and then the new stained glass windows for the doors. Hopefully completed before the Carol Concert.
