A copy of our book Walsingham: Pilgrims and Pilgrimage, written by Fr Michael Rear, has been presented to the Holy Father by Bishop Alan Hopes.

The presentation took place in the Vatican, when Monsignor Keith Newton, Ordinary of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, was received in a private audience on Friday by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI. Bishop Hopes accompanied Monsignor Newton in his capacity as Episcopal Delegate of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England & Wales for the implementation of the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum coetibus.
