Malton to Whitwell on the Hill

Today much cooler and Margaret from St Michael’s Church, Malton pictured centre, joined us as far as Welburn, together with Carole (Hunmanby) and Linda (Reighton).  Our pilgrimage today took us through some welcome shade onto the Castle Howard Estate and the Howardian Hills.  Some stunning scenery and the first day without any real hills!  A great welcome was received at the churches of St Michael’s, Malton and St John’s, Welburn, and prayers were said for the communities of both.  Up from Welburn to The Exclamation Gate overlooking the Beautiful Castle Howard Estate.  Then down to Whitwell on the Hill to finish our day at St John’s.
Grant us, OLord, the spirit of unity that we may dwell together in your love and so bear to the world the ointment of your healing and the dew of your blessing:  Through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen
