This year’s pilgrimage will begin at St James Church, Badsey, where we will gather at 9:15 am for a prompt departure. Following the historic path once walked by the monks, we will make our way to the remains of Evesham Abbey in Abbey Park.

At the abbey, we hope to pray the Akathist to Our Lady of Evesham and all the saints of Evesham, before moving on to the Divine Liturgy at All Saints Church at 11:00 am.

After the service, we will enjoy lunch together—either a picnic outdoors or a meal at one of the many food outlets in Evesham, depending on the weather. At 1:30 pm, there will be a guided visit to the Almonry, where a fascinating collection of Abbey artefacts is on display.

The day will draw to a close with Vespers at All Saints Church at 3:00 pm.

We warmly invite you to join us for this day of prayer, fellowship, and discovery, as we walk in the footsteps of the monks and give thanks for the holy heritage of Evesham.

If the weather is poor, we will meet at All Saints Church at 10:30 am.

This is the nearest Saturday to the feast day celebrating the translation of relics of St Egwin, 10 September. Our community patronal festival falls on 9 September.

The monk’s path is a walk over various surfaces and takes around an hour, depending on the pace.

The morning service of the Church is called Matins. It opens with the reading of six morning psalms and the intoning of the Great Litany. After this, verses of Psalm 118 are sung: God is the Lord and has revealed himself unto us. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

This service immediately precedes the Divine Liturgy. Anyone requiring confession is invited to make themselves known to the priest for this purpose during the service.

The Divine Liturgy is the primary worship service of the Church. It is a Eucharistic service and comprises two parts: Liturgy of the Word, at which the Scriptures are proclaimed and expounded; and the Liturgy of the Eucharist, in which the gifts of bread and wine are offered and consecrated; the faithful then partake of them in the Sacrament of Holy Communion.

Agape Vespers (also called Vespers of Love) is a Vespers service that continues the celebration of Pascha, typically held in the afternoon on the day of Pascha. At this service, the Gospel reading (John 20:19-25) depicts the first appearance of the risen Lord to his disciples. It is recited in many languages (often as many languages as are known by those present in the congregation), symbolising that the glorious resurrection of Christ is proclaimed to all the nations of the world.

The service will be followed by a bring-and-share Festal Picnic (due to weather forecast!)
