On the 25th of August,2018 , members of the Catholic Women’s League , Lancaster Diocese were on their annual pilgrimage to Ladyewell. These are ladies who are deeply devoted to Our Lady of Fernyhalgh and Lancashire Martyrs. It was a lovely memory for all of them.

Holy Mass was solemnly celebrated by Fr Ernest Attah . Fr Mario Ashuikeka and Fr Oliver Onah, a visiting priest from Nigeria were concelebrants at the Mass. At the end of the Mass, a certificate of pilgrimage was presented to Mrs Margaret Valentine, the National President of the league who came to honour Our Lady of Fernyhalgh with the Ladies of Lancaster diocese.

At 2:30pm the Blessed Sacrament was exposed and Benediction was celebrated for them. During this session, he gave them reflection on the role of women in the family. It was a beautiful event and they thanked all our volunteers for their marvellous and unique services.

We appreciate all those who helped in the organisation of the event. Special thank you to Mrs Phillipa Catterall , Diocesan President and Mrs Sue Gornall, Diocesan Secretary.
