On Sunday...

...Oct 26th, the JOHN PAUL WALKERS will come to London!  And anyone is welcome to join us. This is our Autumn Reunion Walk, when we get together to celebrate having achieved the summer Walk to Walsingham. The John Paul Walkers are led by the splendid Dominican Sisters of St Joseph, and include people from across Britain who  pray for the New Evangelisation. We're glad to welcome anyone new who'd like to come along and meet us...bring sandwiches and wear comfortable shoes for walking.

...and it starts with 11 am MASS at Precious Blood Church, London Bridge, after which we'll eat our sandwiches with coffee in the Parish Room. Then we'll set off along the Thames to Westminster, and follow a route that takes us across various bridges and back to the Tower of London, where we'll pay tribute to the war dead at the blood-red sea of poppies, and pray at the site of St Thomas More and St John Fisher's martyrdom...and then return to Precious Blood Church for Benediction and Tea...

Would it be possible to add a prayer for Blessed Margaret Pole, butchered at the Tower in 1541 on the orders of Henry VIII?
Her remains now lie in the church of St Peter ad Vincula.
