  • Our Lady of Walsingham (Anglican)
    Our Lady of Walsingham (Anglican) Father Alfred Hope Patten OSA, appointed as the Church of England Vicar of Walsingham in 1921, ignited Anglican interest in the pre-Reformation pilgrimage. It was his idea to create a new statue of Our Lady of Walsingham based on the image depicted on the seal of the medieval priory. In 1922 the statue was set up in the Parish Church of St Mary and regular pilgrimage devotion followed. From the first night that the statue was placed there, people gathered around it to pray, asking Mary to join her prayers with theirs. Soon thousands of Anglican pilgrims visited the site each year and its popularity continues to grow. Between 1931 and 1937, opposite the Knights Gate, was built the new Anglican Shrine that contains a modern interpretation of the original Holy House, Holy Well and statue of Our Lady. Although Father Hope Patten believed the site to be that of the original Holy House, a myth that continues to this day, the area it covers is now known to have once been an Almonry for the medieval Priory. In addition local legend states that, when excavated, the Holy Well contained within the building was discovered to be a typical medieval domestic well that contained many items of a distinctly non-religious nature. Throughout the 1920s the trickle of pilgrims became a flood of large numbers for whom, eventually, the Pilgrim Hospice was opened (a hospice is the name of a place of hospitality for pilgrims) and, in 1931, a new Holy House encased in a small pilgrimage church was dedicated and the statue translated there with great solemnity.

    Lord, Let Glasgow Flourish by the preaching of Thy Word and the praising of Thy Name JULY 2015 JOURNAL OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF GLASGOW 70p Joie de vivre! A SPIRIT of joy filled St Andrew’s Cathedral as children and young people with additional support needs joined Archbishop Philip Tartaglia for Mass. The theme ‘Rejoice’ reflected the Gospel passage of Mary’s visit to her cousin Elizabeth – whose child in her womb leapt for joy. The Archbishop spoke of the gifts of life and love and the great joy which the births of John the Baptist and Jesus brought to the world. He encouraged the young people to rejoice and reflect that joy in caring for others and looking after the world. Glasgow Lord Provost Sadie Docherty joined in the celebrations.

  • A Regular Part of Our Pilgrimage Is a Visit to the Roman Catholic Shrine Based on the Slipper Chapel, a Mile South of Walsingham Village
    A regular part of our pilgrimage is a visit to the Roman Catholic shrine based on the Slipper Chapel, a mile south of Walsingham village. The chapel is so called because before the Reformation it was the last stopping place before pilgrims reached the shrine; here they would remove their footwear following the long tradition of worshippers taking off their shoes “because the place where you are standing is holy ground.” (In England today people often think of worshipping barefoot as a distinctively Muslim practice, but for many Christians in the Middle East and Asia it is a tradition they have inherited from the early days of Christianity.) Although pilgrimage to Walsingham never completely ceased after the destruction of the shrine by Henry VIII, it was really only in the early 20th century that the restoration of the shrine began to be possible. Unfortunately the division of the Reformation was reflected in the creation of two shrines: in the village itself by the Vicar of Walsingham, Hope Patten, and at the Slipper Chapel which had been given to the Roman Catholic Church in 1896. Although the existence of two shrines continues to be a painful reminder of continuing conflict between Christians and of past persecution, it also provides a powerful incentive to prayer for unity and an opportunity for pilgrims to commit themselves to it. The recent signing of an ecumenical covenant under the single title of “The Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham”* is not only a sign of how interchurch relations have moved from hostility through rivalry to cooperation but also a challenge to overcome the remaining obstacles to reconciliation between divided Christians.

    General Secretariat Tel: 01236 764061 64 Aitken Street Fax: 01236 762489 AIRDRIE Email: [email protected] Lanarkshire ML6 6LT Web: www.bCos.org.uk 18th March 2020 Pastoral Letter and Statement of the Scottish Bishops re. Covid-19 Virus Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, In this time of trial we, the Bishops of Scotland, wish to send you a word of reassurance and encouragement. We are all facing much uncertainty, anxiety and an unpredictable future. This situation touches on every aspect of our lives, individually and collectively. Sacred Scripture calls us repeatedly not to fear and to look to the help that comes to us from above. We are called to support one another in every way we can, especially those who are most vulnerable, through age or underlying conditions. Even in the midst of any necessary “distancing” we must stand by each other. We ask you to pray for the sick, those caring for them, for those in positions of responsibility with difficult decisions to make, indeed for our whole country and the entire human family. Most of all, we are being asked to put our trust in the living God who has created everything to be and to flourish and whose providence guides the course of world events. We put our trust in our Lord Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, and the true physician of our souls and bodies. During this Lent, especially, let us all take the opportunity to deepen our relationship with God. As your bishops and with our priests and deacons, we assure you of our continuing commitment to your spiritual, pastoral and sacramental needs.

Printers to the University of Edinburgh for the Scottish History Society 1960 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE This volume represents some ten years voluntary work undertaken for the National Register of Archives since that body was first formed. It has involved the examination, calendaring and indexing of all documents prior to the year 1600 of the following collections presently lodged in the Register House: Charters of the Earl of Galloway, Lochnaw (Agnew) Charters, Logan (McDowell) Charters, and Barnbarroch (Vaus) Charters; in addition to the following collections, still in private hands, Mochrum Park (Dunbar) Charters, Myrton (McCulloch) Charters, Monreith (Maxwell) Charters, the Craichlaw and Shennanton Papers, and the Cardoness and Kirkconnell Charters, as well as much unpublished material in the Scottish Record Office. I have to express my thanks to the owners and custodians for giving me the necessary access and facilities. In the presentation and editing of these documents I have received ready assistance from many quarters, but I would fail in my duty if I did not mention especially Mrs. A. I. Dunlop, LL.D., and Dr. Gordon Donaldson, who have ungrudgingly drawn on their wide experience as archivists, and Mr. Athol Murray, LL.B., of the Scottish Record Office, who has called my attention to documents and entries in the public records and even undertaken a search of the Registers of the Archbishops of York.
