In preparation for the #RededicationAtHome this Sunday, you are invited to pray the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary at 7pm. Pray in private or join us through our website, youtube or facebook. Please share this information with your friends and family so that we can unite England in prayer, powerfully entering into the day of the Rededication together.

Sunday 29th March 2020: Rededication Day

We are inviting you to take part in the Rededication wherever you are. It will be led by our Bishops and priests across the country through the internet. Check your Diocesan and parish websites for timings so that you can be united with our Bishops and priests in prayer at this time.

At the Shrine, the Rector will briefly introduce the Rededication at 11.45am and invite people to a short time of prayer. The Rededication itself will take place at noon, at the beginning of the Pilgrim Mass which will be livestreamed.

Monday 30th March 2020: Novena in thanksgiving for the Rededication

On the Monday following the Rededication, you are invited to join us at the Shrine in praying the Novena in honour of Our Lady of Walsingham in thanksgiving for the Rededication of England as the Dowry of Mary and for the Lord’s protection for all affected by the coronavirus pandemic. The Novena will be prayed at the end of each Shrine Mass on livestream. We will continue this novena “until the storm passes”.

Prayer

Let us intensify our prayer in these days for England and all nations during this time of great crisis:

Join the Shrine livestream for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, praying especially for the elderly, the vulnerable, for those on the front line and in our NHS, for those in Government and leadership, and all our priests and bishops,
Pray the Rosary for Our Lady of Walsingham’s intentions for England her Dowry
Invoke the intercession of the English Saints and Martyrs through praying the Litany
Pray for the conversion of heart of the people of England and all nations and peoples.

Please share this post with those who may appreciate it.

With my prayers

In Jesus and Mary
