Walsingham again

My dear Friends
Walsingham is one of the loveliest places I know. The chapel of reconciliation at 5pm is quiet and dark, with sometimes the Blessed Sacrament being exposed, bringing the light of the world to this little village in Norfolk. There are many places to pray and pilgrims stay in the Pilgrim Bureau or some of the bed and breakfasts in the neighbourhood.

The lovely thing about it is the ordinariness and extraordinary quality at the same time. Sometimes there are large pilgrimages and sometimes quite small groups of people all converging on the same place. There is something for everyone in this place of pilgrimage dedicated to Mary. Mary revealed herself to a woman in the 19th century and asked her to build a house of Nazareth, and in the morning it was built!

The Holy Ghost Chapel is where you can light candles and say a prayer and it is wonderful to see all the candles which have been lit from people from all over the world.

I suggest you make a visit!

Love and Shalom
Sister Gila
