Description:
St Leonard’s Loveston is getting ready to host its annual pilgrimage in commemoration of the Loveston Colliery disaster. <br/>All people who wish to commemorate this tragic moment in Pembrokeshire’s local history are welcome to join the Loveston community for a service of remembrance, pilgrim walk and picnic lunch on Friday, May 24. <br/>A service will begin at 1pm in St Leonard’s Church, Loveston (around five miles south east of Narberth), before going on a walk to a site associated with the colliery for a picnic lunch and further prayers. <br/>The service will be led by a number of the local clergy and will include a talk about the tragic events being commemorated. The disaster took place on May 26, 1936 when seven men were killed after accidentally breaking through into an old, flooded working. <br/>People are encouraged to being a picnic and sensible walking shoes with them as pilgrims will be walking over a field. Last year the church was able to welcome over 30 people who have since spoken of the enjoyable company and spiritual renewal they received as a result of joining in the commemoration. <br/>For further information, contact Rev’d Seamus Hargrave 01834 860611 seamushargrave@cinw.org.uk<br/>
