On 20th Sep come and have a religious experience on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal!

SPARK are supporting an event organised by the Northern Dioceses Environment Group (NDEG).

The NDEG organise at least one in-person event every year. This year they are doing a mini-pilgrimage from Leeds City Station to Kirkstall Abbey in celebration of 10 years since the publication of Laudato Si. A similar mini-pilgrimage, organised by the Diocesan Communications Director, took place at the end of May.

The pilgrimage itself will take place on Saturday 20 September, with everyone meeting in the main concourse of Leeds City Station (near the public toilets) at 12:45pm for a short briefing and for a prompt 1pm start. NDEG welcome everyone to come and join them and take part in this opportunity to meet with people from across the Northern Dioceses and to find out how Laudato Si has inspired people in different dioceses to act.

There’s not a lot of water in the canal at the moment! – but it is still a pleasant walk and will conclude in the abbey church at Kirkstall Abbey with a short prayer service.

Please sign up (so we know how many people to expect) so we can send you more details.

Just put some contact details into this google form
