MACS 11th Annual Walk

IN THE STEPS OF THE BISHOP

On Saturday 21 September the 11th Annual Walk from the Chapel of Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge to Haslingfield Church in memory of Bishop Charles Mackenzie will take place.  

Charles Mackenzie walked out from the College to help with services at Haslingfield in the mid-19th century and later went out to what is now Malawi to help combat the slave trade.   His arrival marked the virtual beginning of Christianity in that region.  

Monies raised by walkers is sent via MACS (Malawi Association for Christian Support) for projects in Magomero, where he began his ministry.   The Walk starts at 11 am in the Chapel with a short service which will be led this year by Eileen Eggington, Projects Officer and Trustee of MACS.  

Refreshments available at the end of the Walk in the Church.   (Enquiries José Hopkins, 872190.
