Once known as England’s Nazareth, Walsingham was one of the most important shrines in Europe, a place where kings and commoners alike came to honour the Blessed Virgin Mary. But under Henry VIII’s break with Rome, the shrine was torn down, the statue of Our Lady of Walsingham was burned in London and thousands of monasteries, convents and libraries across England were destroyed. This act of sacrilege not only robbed the nation of its Catholic faith but also its culture, art and care for the poor. Join us as we explore the truth behind the so-called “Reformation,” the martyrdom of saints like Thomas More, John Fisher and the Carthusian martyrs, and the devastating impact of the Dissolution of the Monasteries. This moving history challenges us today: what does the loss of Walsingham say to the Church of our own time? 👉 Follow us on Social Media: Facebook:   / ewtngb   YouTube:    / @ewtngreatbritain   Instagram:  / ewtngb   Twitter:   / ewtngb   #EWTNGB #Walsingham
