Pilgrimage for the Planet
Oxford - Sunday 4th October
Jointly organised by the Oxford branches of the Laudate Si movement and Christian Climate Action for its 4th year, the pilgrimage passes through the centre of Oxford visiting sites where we lament the destruction of nature by humankind, and pray for action to restore and live sustainably with all God’s creation.
Prayers are offered at each stop and there are short services at Christchurch Cathedral and St Frideswide’s Church. There will be a comfort break at the CatholicChaplaincy, and a picnic lunch can be eaten at St Frideswide’s after the final service.
The pilgrimage will begin at 11.15am outside Blackfriars Priory in St Giles and finish around 2.15pm at St Frideswide’s Church, after walking along the river from Folly Bridge to Osney Lock Hydro.
