Walsingham Cell
Saint Sexburgha |
The Walsingham Cell was set up to meet
monthly on Sundays after Benediction.
Over
the years this has become an important point of reference for many in their
spiritual journey. It is always a welcome and uplifting experience that is
eagerly looked forward to each year
Its purpose is to:
- disseminate
information about the Shrine;
- provide
a venue for input and discussion on areas of Christian spirituality and
thought;
- make
plans for the Parish annual pilgrimage to the Shrine
of Our Lady of Walsingham.
