DEANERY PILGRIMAGE

On Sunday 15th June, we invite you to join us on the Deanery Summer Pilgrimage.   We shall all make our way to St.Asaph Cathedral by 1pm. where we shall eat our sasndwiches (hopefully on the lawn if the weather is fine)  Following a short time of prayer we will make our way along the A55 to the Island of Anglesey.  (If there are sufficient numbers there will be a coach, otherwise we shall take our own cars).

Our first call on the island will be the tiny church of Llanysilio situated on a little island in the Menai Strait, connected to Anglesey by a causeway.  Next we shall make our way along the scenic road alonside the Menai Strait through Beaumaris and on to Penmon where we shall visit the Priory Church, and the holy well. There will be a time of worship in the Priory Church.  There will be time to go to Penmon Point, a most peaceful place with spectacular views of the mountains of Snowdonia and the coast. The only sounds are the sea, the seabirds and the bell of the lighthouse.

If you would like to go, please notify any of the deanery clergy or send e-mail to jbd@dyffrynclwyd.org.uk
