The team includes : Ros Jones, Alban Macdonald, Val Haygarth, Brian Marshall & Jeanette Taylor pictured below:
The walk itinerary is Sandy (St Swithun's) to Hitchin , to Hemel Hempstead, to Chalfont St Giles, to Maidenhead, Farnham, to Alton, to New Alresford and finally to Winchester Cathedral; where St Swithun's body rests today.
The team from the Sandy area is staying over-night with fellow Christians in the above towns and parishes and we thank them for their kindness and support.
The idea for the walk popped into the head of one of the team during St Swithun's day service last year as she was praying. It's interesting to note that Swithun made his diocesan journeys on foot. And his best known miracle was restoring a basket of eggs that workmen had maliciously broken. So we pray that he may guide our way and he'll be there to make sure we don't break anything on our way. And of course that you will be kind enough to pray for the cause and/or dig deep and sponsor us, on this journey.
