We went as a parish to visit the relics of St Bernadette, presently on tour in the UK, and yesterday at St Mary's Church in Chorley. we took our petitions, most especially for the sick, to the Saint of Lourdes.
As always, so grateful that so many parishioners came along - about 25 of us. Great turn out considering we are such a small parish.
Pictured here with Fr Grant Maddock, Parish Priest at Lydiate. We had some extra time in church as we stayed behind during the procession to anoint the sick.

St Mary's, Chorley, is a magnificent building (the actual glorious High Altar, sadly no longer in use for Mass).
Some more photos of giving a flavour of the evening.
