The Pilgrimage of Hope is a national walking pilgrimage for England and Wales with four main Ways converging at the Cathedral of St. Barnabas, Nottingham, on Saturday, September 13th, the eve of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. It is an initiative of the Hearts in Search of God project. The Ways start at the Catholic cathedrals in Cardiff, Leeds, Norwich and London and will bless our nations with a Sign of the Cross. The routes use established hiking routes and are off road as much as possible. A small group of 'perpetual pilgrims' will walk the full distance of each Way, with up to 20 day pilgrims joining for day stages. It is now possible for pilgrims to register for day stages.

The Church celebrates the mystery of the Most Holy Trinity each year on the Sunday following Pentecost. The Trinity is one of the most fundamental beliefs of the Church and so it is fitting that we dedicate a particular Sunday to that mystery. Celebrating Trinity Sunday allows the Church to further reflect on the mystery of God after receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit. This helps us to see the connection that if we truly want to understand the Trinity, we need to have the gift of the Holy Spirit. We can never fully understand who God is on our own and desperately need his guidance and inspiration. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches: The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in Himself. It is therefore the source of all the other mysteries of faith, the light that enlightens them. It is the most fundamental and essential teaching in the “hierarchy of the truths of faith.” The whole history of salvation is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, reveals Himself to men “  and reconciles and unites with Himself those who turn away from sin. (Paragraph 234) So, we gather together today to celebrate the central mystery of God, one and three, eternally united in trinity. May the Holy Trinity dwell in the hearts of each one of us who come to God in faith and draw us ever closer into the mystery of God’s eternal love.
