Bishop Steven is undertaking a Pilgrimage Prayer Walk through part of the diocese at the beginning of September and will be travelling through the Bradfield Deanery on the 5th September if anyone would like to join him. All you need is a packed lunch, appropriate walking attire and a heart for prayer. For further details please look at the Diocesan website. I plan to join him for some of the way, if anyone would like to come along as well.
