Mass was celebrated at the ruins of Bayham Abbey in Kent for only the second time since the Protestant Reformation, as we reported earlier in the week.
The Norbertine canons returned to their former monastery on 11 July to mark the 900th anniversary of Pope Honorius II’s approval of the Order of Canons Regular of Prémontré. In addition to Mass offered in the traditional Norbertine rite, the day included a chant workshop, historical talks, a family rosary and the veneration of the relics of St Norbert.
