While the pilgrims are wending their prayerful way from Churn at St Birinus Presbytery preparations are under way for the tea that greets them there.
On June 21st, Midsummer Sunday 2009 the annual Pilgrimage commemorating St Birinus approach to Dorchester from Churn Knob above Blewbury took place.
Your webmaster was in Leipzig for the BachFest and was unable to attend the pilgrimage. The excellent pictures that follow were all provided by Mrs Angelina Witcombe. If any pilgrim has pictures of the Pilgrimage from Churn to Dorchester CB would like to share them on this website page. Copyright remains with the author of any pictures used.
Pilgrims arriving at St Birinus Catholic Church seek tea and cake as they congregate ready for the procession of pilgrims and clergy to Dorchester Abbey for the St Birinus Ecumenical Pilgrimage Service.
