Our Pilgrimage to Lourdes

The dictionary describes a pilgrim as a wanderer, one who travels to a sacred place. It is a journey of faith.

We regard our pilgrimage group as a family, people together from a wide social background, a variety of ages and life experiences. It is this diversity that reflects an extended family; the constant link is care for each other. Each individual has a contribution to make. Each one of us has something to give. Our different personalities combined make us strong, both as individuals and as a group of pilgrims on our journey of faith.

Call For People To

“come in procession” can be regarded as asking that people “move out of their own familiar world, their own ordinary routine, their own narrow perspectives and join with people from other places, forming a community around the person of Jesus and becoming the true children of God”.
