WALSINGHAM, ENGLAND’S NAZARETH
Since Saxon times, Walsingham has drawn pilgrims to Our Lady’s Shrine to celebrate the Incarnation; Jesus, the Word of God who became man in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Kings, Queens, nobles and people of all backgrounds have taken the Walsingham Way for their spiritual good. The sad events of the Reformation saw the Abbey closed, the image destroyed and the shrine neglected.
Over the last century, with the shrine restored, Walsingham is again for Catholics and Anglicans, a source of inspiration and hope for people of all conditions on their pilgrim journey. England’s National Catholic Shrine of our Lady needs our help. Please pray and make an offering for the spiritual good of our land, the Dowry of Mary.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, Our Lady of Walsingham, Pray for us!
There will be a second collection for the work, worship and development of the shrine at all masses.
The collection for Father Hudson’s Care is now re-scheduled to 11 December.
