Flat Holm – “A Walk Through Time” Prayer, pilgrimage and worship in the tradition of the Celtic saints

Join a series of unique pilgrimages in 2023 to the island of Flat Holm in the Bristol Channel. Embedded in the Christian Celtic tradition of our land, the South Cardiff Ministry Area pilgrimages will have a special care for the natural world, and explore how we can discover God’s presence and serve him in the familiar and every day, as we rejoice in the saints of our land.

Flat Holm sits alongside its sister island, Steep Holm, in the Bristol Channel. It lies within the ancient parish of Cardiff St Mary the Virgin and is the southernmost point of Wales. It is rich in wildlife, steeped in history and religious significance.

Like the saints before us, you too are able to take an Island retreat as we make pilgrimage to Flat Holm. On the pilgrimage you will walk where Saint Cadoc walked, pray where he prayed and, perhaps, gain a fresh perspective on our life with God, as we seek to have our faith strengthened and renewed.

Join the Easter pilgrimage

Friday April 14th – ‘A New Creation: an Easter Pilgrimage’

Taking place during Easter Week, this pilgrimage celebrates the Resurrection of Christ as the beginning of a new creation and, in the midst of the beauty of Flat Holm, we seek to receive a new appreciation of God’s world, and our place within it.
