Welcome
Welcome to the web site for the Annual Spiritual Pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham at Benalla.
The Annual Pilgrimage began in 2005 and has now become a regular and vital part in the life of the Parish of Benalla, and also the many pilgrims who descend upon Benalla for the day.
On this site you will find details about the services and events which take place through the day, information about the next Pilgrimage and also how to book.
If you are considering coming, it is important to book before hand because of the amount of space in the Church and catering .
Even if you have never made this or any Pilgrimage before, you will find a warm welcome, a holy day and an enjoyable opportunity to share time with your fellow pilgrims.
2010 date!
The date for the 2010 Pilgrimage will be Saturday 2nd October 2010. Bishop Lindsay Urwin, the Administrator of the Shrine has accepted our invitation to preach at this!
