Pilgrims

   Several groups who are walking the St Cuthbert's Way have visited us recently. On Sunday 26th a pilgrim party from America joined us for worship at Morebattle - then walked over Wideopen Hill and were welcomed with some tea and biscuits at Yetholm. It was a somewhat wet day, though the spectacular views from the top of Wideopen were not obscured. The photograph above shows them being welcomed by Colin and drying out in the kirk. Hopefully the refreshments at Yetholm helped to revive their spirits and encoured them to press on into England on the following day ...
    Then on the night of the 28th May an Iona Community group camped out in the church - see photograph below (with members of our parish community). We hope both groups enjoyed their time with us and find their journey an enriching experience.

    The St Cuthbert's Way Churches group, to which we belong, are in the process of producing leaflets & other information about the churches along the route. Their leaflet for Yetholm has just been printed - scans are shown below. We look forward to a one for Morebattle in due course.
