One hundred years of the Carmelites in Faversham, a celebration.

New Carmelite publication written by Jon Anslow.

Pilgrims of Hope tells the fascinating tale of the Carmelites’ exile from Britain in the reign of Henry 8th, their return centuries later and how, in just 100 years, they built a community in Kent that extends far beyond parish boundaries to welcome pilgrims from all over the world. 

Told engagingly in words and pictures, the book features personal, stories told by pilgrims seeking peace, joy and hope at the Shrine of St Jude.
