Fri 28 May – Norwich to Chelmsford

UPDATE: Friday 28 May – From Norwich to Bury St Edmonds and Chelmsford

Leaving Norwich this morning, John's first stop was St Edmundsbury Cathedral in Bury St. Edmunds who have been following John's journey and waiting for him to drop in!

With the weather being more cheerful it was back on the road and on to Essex and Chelmsford Cathedral. With over 10 hours and 87 miles in the saddle, John handed over a copy of the climate change letter to Deacon Rowena Samual of the Chelmsford Methodist area.

Deacon Rowena Samual outlines the environmental work being undertaken in her circuit.

Revd John Kime is taking part in the Cathedrals Cycle Route Challenge, cycling 2000 miles around across England bearing a letter from the Methodist Church's Bristol District Chair, the Revd Dr Jonathan Pye, highlighting the urgent issue of climate change and climate justice.

The letter calls to support actions which will care for creation in a proactive way, lobby the Government which is hosting the COP 26 talks in Glasgow for lasting commitments to care for our planet, and for individuals to take steps 'to tread more lightly upon this earth'.
