From the source of the Thames to Oxford, the Thames meanders across beautiful meadows, with their sprinkling of pepper saxifrage and other wildflowers. Not to mention the flutters of metallic blue demoiselles dancing around you! Crossed stone bridges and rickety ones #pilgrimage

Sea Sunday service at St Nicholas Chapel, King’s Lynn: Revds Mark Dimond, Sue Martin and Fiona Munn. We processed to King’s Lynn Port for the Blessing of the Fisher Fleet. We prayed for ‘those who go down to the sea in ships and ply their trade in great waters’ (Psalm 107, v.23)

This week we’ve been praying for the local police force. A memorial service took place on the Festival of St Michael’s and All Angels. St Michael is patron saint of police officers. Thank you to our police officers who try and keep King’s Lynn and the Borough safe.

It’s 35 years since the Fall of the Berlin Wall. Here are pieces of that fallen Wall, a symbol of freedom. There are different types of freedom, including freedom of the inner self (i.e.where God is) - ‘the truth will set you free’.

Up a mountain or two in beautiful eastern Moravia (Wallachia): at ‘three crosses’ monument on the Czech-Slovak border, marking the bravery of a WW2 resistance fighter; and then a delightful hill climb up to Svatý Hostýn, a Czech pilgrimage destination
