This year marks the 100th anniversary of Hexham and Newcastle Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes and as part of the celebrations St Teresa’s church is hosting the “Kellet Cup Race Night” to raise funds for Lourdes Hospitalité, in memory of Fr Denis Kellet, a previous parish priest who was a great supporter of the Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes.
All funds raised will support sick and disabled pilgrims from throughout the diocese to travel to Lourdes.
If you, your family or your business would like to sponsor a race for a donation of £50 per family/£100 per business please let us know and you can name your race.
We are also selling horses (£5 each, 1 in 6 chance of winning a prize)
Tickets for the evening £5 (to include 1 free bet) or pay at the door
For further information, sponsorship, horses and tickets please contact Pat Henzell via 07803727799 or chris.henzell@gmail.com
Many thanks for your support.
The Lourdes hospitalité, the volunteer nurses, and all future pilgrims are most grateful.
