HCPT 2013

The Pilgrimage to Lourdes with the HCPT is starting this year on a sombre note.  

The new Team Donhead Group 729 which was formed  last  year is traveling again and is so far  we feel quite successful and worthwhile. Once more we have an old Donhead boy (age 16) in the Group. Also  Father Francis who is I think age  30, has  just secured a visa to travel to France with us  as HCPT Group 729 chaplain for our Easter Week pilgrimage.

A sadness that I  learned about  yesterday  arises from  serious ill health:

 A 10 year old  Donhead boy was yesterday reported as having contracted  a very serious heart virus which doctors advise may require him the have a heart transplant if  his health does not mend shortly. 

We shall think of him at Lourdes and perhaps anyone who reads this blog will say a prayer for him and his family.
