LOURDES AT HOME
from the Diocese
As we prepare to travel to Lourdes on 31st July, there will be people who would like to participate from here in our Diocese who cannot be with us.
Blessing of Hands
There will be Mass with the blessing of hands in St Mary’s Cathedral, with Bishop Stephen as the principal celebrant. We all serve each other in our own way, whether it be as a registered helper, youth member, medical team, pilgrim or those who pray for the success of our pilgrimage at home.
Everyone is welcome to this special Mass on Tuesday 21st July at 6.30pm in the Cathedral.
Pilgrimage Hymn Book
Many who are participating from home have asked if they can purchase a copy of the hymn book. These will be on sale at the Cathedral on Tuesday 21st July, and are priced £5.00.
Centenary Pilgrimage Medal
There is a special centenary medal this year which is based on the medal from the Holy Year of 1958. The medal has a maroon ribbon with a gold-coloured metal St Cuthbert’s Cross attached. Again, these will be on sale at the Cathedral on Tuesday 21st July, and are priced £5.00.
Live Streaming
When in Lourdes, the Masses and services will be live streamed via the Diocesan Hospitalité YouTube channel and the Lourdes Sanctuary YouTube channel. More details will be available on the Diocesan Hospitalité Facebook page.
Please keep the success of the Centenary pilgrimage in your prayers.
