We had a wonderful day on Friday when we welcomed a group of Y11 girls from St Bede’s in Cambridge to our home in Dereham in the morning and then travelled with them to Walsingham. As a thank you, Ms Harvey who helped organise the trip made a mini Sr Catherine amigurumi figure! We think it will have to be our new mission mascot when we travel around.
We spent the morning sharing with the school group more about our life as religious sisters and showing them around our chapel and hermitages. After a packed lunch and a few games of table tennis we all headed to Walsingham for the afternoon, learning more about its message visiting the Anglican Shrine, the Church of the Annunciation and St. Seraphim’s Orthodox Chapel. We then parted ways at the Walsingham to Wells light railway as they headed over to the coast to end their day.
Thank you to St Bede’s for the visit, we hope they enjoyed the day as much as we did!
