VISIT TO THE HOLY LAND IN 2013

WITH

FR. MERVYN AND FR. MARTIN

Brochures are now ready for the Pilgrimage to the Holy Land in 2013. We are stopping at two excellent hotels and all entrance fees, three meals a day, and all gratuities are included. We plan to visit all the well-known holy places including Bethlehem, Nazareth, Jerusalem, Tiberius, the Sea of Galilee, the River Jordan etc. using air-conditioned coaches with an excellent Tour Guide. There will be a Daily Mass. Travel Insurance is extra if needed (many people have an annual policy so don’t need the cover offered by the travel company) This is a trip of a life time organised for us by one of the best and most experienced travel companies McCabe.

The Pilgrimage is open to all who are interested so if you would like more details contact Father Mervyn or Father Martin

After Mass, which we offered for all persecuted Christians followed by refreshments,we had a discussion about the adjournment of the debate about Women Bishops at the recent General Synod Those present were asked to support the petition by the Revd. John Richardson, Vicar of Ugley, to the Bishops asking them to keep the amendments they had made. We also discussed the decisions made by the Episcopal Church of the USA.

The next meeting of the Ordinariate Exploratory Group will be on Wednesday 19th September at St. Augustine’s Church when we will continue our study of the Evangellium Course.
