Our Lady of Walsingham is a title given to Mary, the mother of Jesus, who is the patron saint of our parish church. On Wednesday, July 2nd, our rector Fr Shane Griffiths will celebrate a Holy Communion service in her honour at Dunsfold Church at 9.30am. The title 'Our Lady of Walsingham' refers to an apparition of Mary that was experienced by Richeldis de Faverches, a devout English noblewoman, in 1061 in the village of Walsingham, Norfolk. According to tradition, Lady Richeldis was instructed to build a replica of the Holy House—the home of the Holy Family in Nazareth. This structure became a shrine and a significant site of pilgrimage, later entrusted to the Canons Regular of Saint Augustine sometime between 1146 and 1174. Our Lady of Walsingham is venerated by Anglicans and Roman Catholics.

Teams of cyclists aim to cover 2000 miles as they link the 42 UK Anglican cathedrals.

How many churches are getting back to nature this week - and some in the most built-up, inner-city parishes.

We recently highlighted Dunsfold and our church's inclusion in a book called Britain's Pilgrim Places, now churches in the North East of England have revised pilgrim routes in their area.

An astonishing claim from a church in Suffolk.
