The Easter pilgrimage to New Norcia and holy places en route will ask the traditional two things of a pilgrim from the days of Chaucer onwards: a joyful Christian heart and sound protection against all the physical elements and hardships on the way, namely their own food and accommodation. Any pilgrim of any age is welcome to join in any Dart of the twoday journey; the less hardy may care to go to New Norcia just for the Monday outing. The programme is as follows: SUNDAY 6.30 a.m. The hardy ones will gather at the Redemptorist Church, North Perth, for an openair service conducted by Father P. Ryan, C.SS.R. who will be accompanying the pilgrimage. It should be noted that only limited parking space is available within the monastry grounds. (Easter Sunday Masses at the Monastery: 7 a.m. and 9 a.m.). The next stop is at St. Brigid's Church, Midland, for another short service at approximately 8 a.m. (Easter Sunday Masses at Midland: 7 a.m. and 9.30 a.m. Mass at Herne Hill on Great Northern Highway at 8 a.m.). A leisurely drive to Bindoon is the next leg of the journey, aiming to arrive at approximately 11.30 a.m. A feature of the stop at Keaney College will be the Way of the Cross conducted by Father Peter Ryan, C.SS.R. at the outdoor Stations on the road into the College. Lunch can be followed by resting, a trek to the hill of Christ the King or other strolls in the vicinity. Pilgrims will then make the final 20-mile stage to New Norcia in time to establish themselves and be ready f or the solemn Pontifical Vespers at 5 p.m. ( Note: there is no evening Mass at New Norcia). The highlight of Sunday evening will be a presentation at 7.30 in the New Norcia Pro -Cathedral of a programme of songs, verse, readings and drama by five players under the direction of David Crann. ACCOMMODATION: The hotel is booked out. Father Prior of New Norcia advises that there is room for 30 men and 20 women in the St. Mary's House. Mattresses are available but sheets and blankets will have to be brought. The football oval area will be available for caravans or campers. PROVISIONS: The organisers stress that pilgrims will have to attend to providing all their own food and refreshments during the two days. Barbecue facilities will be available at New eia for campers Norand
caravan pilgrims. The roadhouse can cater for 30 people at a sitting for meals. The kiosk will be open for those wishing to purchase groceries. The Catholic Social Club will also be providing refreshments. MONDAY commences at a leisurely pace with a Mass at 11 a.m. After lunch comes a
Pagal Gymkhana which has been popularly described as "A Madman's Picnic" — games for all ages. It will then be time for the pilgrimage to head into the setting sun for the return to Midland where at approximately 7 p.m. the final service and Vespers will take place in St. Brigid's Church.
