PILGRIMAGE WALK FROM OLD SARUM TO THE CATHEDRAL 12 JULY 2008

This year Salisbury will be celebrating the 750th Anniversary of the consecration of the completed Cathedral in 1258 and the 35th Anniversary of the special link between the Diocese of Salisbury and the Episcopal Church of Sudan.
As part of the celebrations there will be a Pilgrimage on 12th July from the site of the original Cathedral at Old Sarum to the Cathedral Close via the water meadows along footpaths, starting at 10.30am.

We hope as many school, parish and youth groups as possible from across Wiltshire and Dorset will be able to participate and that you will be able to send a group to make this historic pilgrimage with us. Please confirm the numbers you are hoping to bring and join us on 12th July ,by contacting danela.adams@salisbury.anglican.org or by telephoning 01380 729808 by 20th June.

To add to this celebration, participating groups are being asked to create a ‘river of colour’ by making their own pilgrim’s staff, carrying a banner, or wearing a shell as a sign of pilgrimage. It is hoped that the following information will answer any questions that you may have about the event, if you have any other queries please use the contact details listed above.

‘River of Colour’ - Banners and Badges
We would like to encourage all those who take part to wear a badge as a sign of being a pilgrim. They are very simple to make and you can find out how by clicking on the icon below...

You can also make a pilgrim's staff to be part of the river of colour. For more information go to http://www.salisburyanglican.org.uk/sarumpilgrimage/
