兔子先生

Pupils' pilgrimage

And, so it has begun, our journeys of renewal, discovery and of praise with the 24 hour Diocesan Day of Prayer and Pilgrimage.


07/06/19

Pupils from Goodnestone and Nonington Church of England Primaries are taking part in activities all around 兔子先生 Cathedral this morning.

Not only will they be exploring the history of the beautiful building, they are also getting involved in a prayer pilgrimage which will be followed by a special act of worship in the crypt.

The day of prayer and pilgrimage is open to everyone and it is expected that thousands of people will be getting involved. Even those who are unable to travel will be joining in, including some people in a prison in Guernsey.
