Following in the footsteps of St Margaret
Almost 200 young people followed in the footsteps of St Margaret last Sunday as they gathered in Dunfermline for the first national pilgrimage to St Margaret organised by Catholic Youth Service Scotland.
The young Catholics visited the cave where St Margaret went to pray and to escape the hustle and bustle of her life as well as visiting her tomb and Dunfermline Abbey.
The pilgrimage culminated in Mass in St Margaret’s Church with Archbishop Leo Cushley of St Andrews and Edinburgh, episcopal president of CYSS, Bishop John Keenan of Paisley and Bishop Joseph Toal of Motherwell and a number of priests from the different dioceses.
At the end of Mass each pilgrim was presented with a medal of St Margaret by one of the bishops.
