Diocese of Down & Dromore

Bishop’s Big Bike Ride Day 4

A beautiful Wednesday 16 March and Day 4 which took us into the heart of Newry and Mourne to the southernmost and highest points of the diocese. We left from Rathfriland and 55 miles later arrived in Castlewellan, visiting 9 parishes in total. Thanks to Christ Church Kilkeel for lending us their minibus as our support vehicle and for lunch. We received a warm welcome everywhere and had nine more opportunities to talk about Bishops’ Appeal and the projects we’re supporting in Honduras and Jordan!
