Dear Friends,

Further to my previous messages about our pilgrimage to the Church of St Boniface on the Isle of Wight, here are the full details.

There is a WhatsApp group 'Bonchurch Pilgrimage 2023' for sharing information about the pilgrimage. Please join using this link if you are planning on coming. Here's a reminder of last year's pilgrimage.

Transport:
We will do it by car sharing like last year.
If you can offer places, or if you need a place, please post in the WhatsApp group.  It's understood that passengers will share the cost of the ferry and petrol with the driver.

The timetable:
We suggest to get the 09:00 ferry from Southampton Red Funnel terminal (arrive between 08:15 and 08:30 - location: https://w3w.co/drew.boring.fuels) . This should arrive in East Cowes around 10:00. It is about a 45 min drive to Bonchurch. See below for the location.
(As it is the beginning of the school holidays , the ferries will be filling up, so it's worth booking in good time).

11:00 Hours and confessions
11:30 Divine Liturgy
13:00 Clear up 
14:00 Picnic on the beach, weather permitting.
15:45 Depart (or not, if you want more time on the Island)
16:45 Arrive East Cowes ferry terminal (location: https://w3w.co/endlessly.lilac.menswear) for 17:30 crossing
18:30 arrive Southampton

The address is:
St Boniface Old Church,Bonchurch Village Rd, Ventnor PO38 1RQ
PLEASE NOTE: The church is at the end of a narrow road and there is no parking. We suggest you drop off passengers at the junction (location: https://w3w.co/obstruction.gratuity.bumping) from where it is a short walk to the church. You can park at Shore Road Car Park (location: https://w3w.co/speeds.master.perfumed) and walk to the church by Shore Rd, a lane off to the left and a footpath. See map below.
