In July,
over fifty students from the Chorley, Leyland and Euxton areas travelled to
Lourdes on the Archdiocese of Liverpool’s annual pilgrimage. Several of the
students received Bursary funding to help finance their trips. They assisted
the sick and handicapped pilgrims in many ways during their week’s stay.
The
importance of the work carried out by these young people, and how valued they
are by the pilgrims and organisers, cannot be overstated.
Two of
the students who received Bursary funding are Vicky Harrison and
Emma Whitney. Vicky is pictured above receiving her cheque from Chorley
Circle President Brother John Holland, watched by Circle Charities Officer
Brian Bunting, and Emma is pictured below receiving her cheque, again from Brother
President John, watched by Fr. Peter Stanley, Parish Priest of St. Joseph’s,
Chorley.

The Catenian Association is an international body of proudly Catholic laymen and permanent deacons who meet at least once a month in local groups called Circles, to enjoy each other's company and thereby strengthen their family life through friendship, faith and fun! It is open to practising Catholic laymen from the age of 18 years. Many of the Circles’ activities involve the members’ wives and families.
