Some photos of our Sponsored Pilgrimage from Bromley to Southwark Cathedral, a 14 mile walk through the outskirts of London. Well done to everyone that took part!
|
We're off! On the train to Bromley |
|
Our walk started by crossing the Meridien. |
|
Golfers are obviously dangerous people... |
|
There were suprisingly rural and unspoiled corners along the way. |
|
Along the way we left prayer cards, with a greeting and a blessing. We hope they will be a nice surprise for people coming to worship tomorrow. |
|
We came across a dinosaure infested park (Crystal Palace) |
|
And we stumbled across the London Youth Games |
|
Trust me, from this point on the site of the Crystal Palace, you could see the Wrotham TV mast, near Seal! |
|
Crystal Palace TV mast. |
|
We found some lovely churches open along the way. |
|
A break at the Dulwich Picture Gallery cafe. |
|
We couldn't miss a photo of Theo (Theodore) under the sigh that read "God's Gift" since that's what his name means ( and exactly what he is to all of us! ) |
|
A lovely, welcoming modern church, built on the site of a church that had burned down. The churchwarden was delighted to see us and let us spend some time here. |
|
We stumbled into another church's street party - they were just setting up, and offered us lunch, though we didn't have time to stay. |
|
A beautiful mosque |
|
We kept seeing the Shard in the distance, which we knew was right by our journey's end. |
|
There's the Shard again. |
|
Borough market , right by Southwark Cathedral |
|
We were warmly welcomed at Southwark Cathedral for Evensong. |
