Fr. Bob Hamill is
the parish priest of the Church of
St Alban's in the Diocese of
Brentwood. He has been visiting Lourdes for over 25 years, 21 of
which have been with the Brentwood Catholic Handicapped
Fellowship.
The CHF Pilgrimage Group was started by Sheelagh Tooth in 1962. Sheelagh
died on 16th January 2000.
Fr. Bob is now supported by Mary Biss and her team of Helpers
who do all the administrative work and make the travel
arrangements. |

| Fr. Bob has a great
gift with young people with different needs and his services are
renowned for their liveliness and spontaneity. Indeed, the young
people are central to the celebration of Mass. He is pictured with
Peter Newton, a key member of the
group for many years who sadly died on the 19th January 2004, may he
rest in peace. Always popular with the members of the main pilgrimage,
Fr. Bob mass is often a moving experience and thoroughly recommended. |
