Dear All,
Please join the Grand Priory, BASMOM, the Companions and the OMV for the Walsingham weekend pilgrimage from 9-11 September. The pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady in this little village near the North Norfolk Coast is a smaller activity, and everyone (volunteers and guests alike) stay in the centre of Walsingham and enjoy a few days' break together. It is a wonderfully relaxed weekend spent with old friends, and a great chance to chat and pray with volunteers and guests from other 'branches' of the Order. There will be transport organised, with coaches leaving from and returning to London, more information to follow.
The cost of the weekend is £240: this includes accommodation, transport and marvellous food including a fish pie feast upon arrival, champagne-laced picnics and a superb afternoon tea - these are just some of the culinary highlights. There is a pub right next door to the hotel, so bring a few extra coins for drinks etc. as we will be spending a large proportion of our waking hours there. You can also join us for the Procession, Mass and Sunday Lunch only.
Please make your application for Walsingham as soon as you can! The spaces always fill up, so (in the words of just about any self-promoting event ever) please book early to avoid disappointment!
There are various prices for different applicants, as follows:
Full Price (BASMOM & Companions): £240
No Accommodation: £150 (Discount code: NOACCOM)
OMV Member: £120 (Discount code: OMVMEMBER)
Medic: £120 (Discount code: MEDIC)
Clergy: £0 (Discount code: CLERGY)
Sunday Lunch only: £40 (Discount code: SUNDAYLUNCH)
We also have a number of bursaries available to people who are not OMV members but are under the age of 35 (and for whom the full price is a bit steep); please email Jack Straker to apply (walsingham@omv.org.uk).
If you have any questions about the pilgrimage, accommodation enquiries etc., please don't hesitate to email .
We look forward to you joining us for what is always a very special weekend. Please, spread the word and invite your friends!
