Advanced announcements

Lindisfarne pilgrimage, Saturday 21 November 2026. A full day pilgrimage to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, departing from 2 Meadow Lane at 7.30 am.

We travel there and back by private cars, and all participants are expected to contribute towards the fuel of the drivers: £10 for passengers and £0 for drivers. If your contribution needs to be different, or £0, please speak to Eleanna or Antonios. The amount should not stop you from taking part. If you are making your own arrangements, please let the coordinators know. Drivers are needed.

On the day it will be safe to cross between 1.45 am and 10.00 am, so please arrive by 9.45 am at the latest. It will be safe to leave the Island from 2.40 pm until 10.00 pm. We hope to follow this timetable as closely as possible:

• 10.00 to 11.30 am, Divine Liturgy
• 12.00 to 1.30 pm, fellowship at the Community Hall, with a Q&A led by Bishop Raphael. If you can, please bring your lunch (fish may be consumed), and some to share if possible.
• 1.30 to 2.30 pm (or later), free time to explore the Island, weather permitting.
