Patteson's Way

We invite you to make a pilgrimage with Bishop John Coleridge Patteson on a circular – ‘Patteson’s Way’. The eight mile pilgrimage visits the main sites associated with Bishop John Coleridge Patteson – Feniton, Alfington, Ottery St Mary and Patteson’s Cross in East Devon, and can be walked in a day or in four stages.

@MelanesianM Looking forward to the ordination. Fr Alphonse will minister at the Cathedral but will also continue to be responsible for working with the hundreds of Solomon Islander and ni-Van agricultural workers now in North Queensland - some of whom are in the photo!
