FATHER CLEMENT'S SPONSORED WALK
Some time ago, Father Clement announced that he intended completing a sponsored walk in support of the diocesan Sick and Retired Priests' Fund. This caught the imagination of several parishioners who announced that they too would do the walk, albeit a shorter version than that chosen by Father Clement. On Saturday 1st April, a hardy bunch (including several from our sister parish, The Divine Infant of Prague in Syston) set off from Launde Abbey in the drizzle. Below are some shots of them at the start and en route. As of 1st May, the amazing sum of over £6,000 has been raised.
