Memorial Candles Light the Way to St Catherine’s Chapel, Abbotsbury on Saturday, September 10, 2011.
Abbotsbury Heritage Fayre raising funds for the fabric of St Nicholas Church invites you to St Catherine’s Candles for the sixth year running.
A thousand candles will light the path up the hill to St Catherine’s Chapel on Saturday, September 10. Each candle in memory of someone close.
A simple ecumenical service accompanied by local musicians will be held in the chapel at 7.00pm. There is standing room only in the chapel but the service will be relayed to those outside.
This is one of a series of simple services, which are held each month until St Catherine’s Day in November.
After the service those who wish may with assistance light one of the memorial candle placed around the perimeter of the chapel.
The candles can be seen for miles around and are a wonderful sight.
For those unable to climb the hill 4x4 transport can be arranged if required.
* Lifts can be arranged from the Rodden Row car park, Abbotsbury (4.30pm) by prior arrangement with the organisers.
