Story
DCSD Community Pilgrimage to Lourdes is a new Pilgrimage group starting in 2018. The Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset Community Pilgrimage to Lourdes is a new group running independently from the Plymouth Diocesan Pilgrimage. It has been created to offer pilgrims a different and new Lourdes experience where we can all not only come together to express our faith but also in a social, caring environment where no one will ever feel left out or isolated going back to the grass roots of what a pilgrimage to Lourdes is all about….. “Bring me the sick and infirm”.
Lourdes has always been a very special place for me and has a unique relationship with Our Lady. It gives us the opportunity to come together, from all backgrounds and walks of life, to be as one in prayer and also spend time together serving one another in community. Lourdes is a very special place of prayer and healing. Our pilgrimage will also give an opportunity for those in our community, who may need medical support or special assistance, to be able to travel to Lourdes and to stay in hotels with other pilgrims which is the main focus at the heart of our pilgrimage.
During a recent interview a pilgrim in Lourdes said “In Lourdes we are treated like royalty” and this personifies my own sentiments as to what a pilgrimage should be. That every pilgrim, whether they be disabled, unwell or healthy, should be treated the same and given the help and support that they need whether that be physical help or just someone to talk to which is why I have named the group “Community Pilgrimage”.
In order for us to be able to deliver the Pilgrimage we need to raise our starting funds to allow us to be able to subsidise our wonderful helpers and youth group. We will also be using the money raised to help those who are unwell and want to travel to Lourdes but may not be able to afford it.
Any donation will be greatly appreciated. Should you wish to find out more information please send an email to: director@dcsdcommunitypilgrimage.org
