Diocese of Down & Dromore

St Patrick’s Day 2022 Saul and Prayer Pilgrimage

After a two year hiatus we were delighted to welcome so many pilgrims to Holy Communion at Saul Church and the prayer pilgrimage to Downpatrick. Dean Hull led the service at which Bishop David presided and Capt George Newell gave the address. It was very special to welcome a group visiting from the Diocese of Jerusalem, some of whom are involved with the project in Jordan which is being supported by our Lent Appeal. What’s more, Patrick turned the stone and the sun shone!
