Diocesan Pilgrimage to the
Holy Land
Led by Bishop Humphrey
29th November - 7th December 2010 |
A pilgrimage will leave the Diocese next year on 29 November for
this Advent journey of reflection, celebration & meeting. A
key aim of the pilgrimage will be to meet with local Palestinian
Christians who will lead us around the sacred sites. We will have
services each day. People will be able to renew their baptism vows
in the River Jordan and their marriage vows at Cana of Galilee.
We will visit the place of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem, meditate
on the Sea of Galilee and follow the via dolorosa in Jerusalem.
Many other important pilgrimage places are included on the programme.
Brochures can be downloaded from the tour operator’s website
www.lightline.org.uk
or by calling them on 01992 576065. There will be two open meetings
in the Diocese in September for those wanting to know more. Early
booking is encouraged – with plenty of time to save for 2010!
