Blessing of the Thames

Sunday 10th January, 2010

The congregations of St Magnus and Southwark Cathedral met in the middle of London Bridge in freezing weather to bless the River Thames, all who work on it and all who died in it.  Led by Fr Philip and Canon Andrew Nunn, a wooden cross with all our prayers was cast into the water to the sound of the bells from both churches.  The company then returned to St Magnus for refreshments.
