Pilgrimage in Honour of St Margaret Clitherow

There will be a pilgrimage in honour of St Margaret Clitherow in York on Saturday 24th March.  It will begin with a Solemn Mass in the Church of St Wilfrid at 1.30pm at which Bishop Terence Drainey will preside. A procession will follow, which will pass through The Shambles, where Margaret Clitherow lived and over Ouse Bridge, where she was executed ending at the Church of the English Martyrs for Benediction.

Last year, when the Mass was in York Minster, the event was attended by about 750 people.
