THE 19th annual Christus Rex Pilgrimage arrived in Bendigo recently.The medieval-inspired event culminated in the spectacular Solemn Mass of Christ the King at Sacred Heart Cathedral, sung in the Extraordinary Form, on Sunday, October 25.Hundreds of pilgrims from across the country band together each year for this ever-growing three-day journey from Ballarat to Bendigo, praying and meditating as they walk through the countryside.This year, special thought was given to the Year for Priests opened by Pope Benedict XVI.Attended by young and old, Sunday’s Mass featured beautiful examples of the Catholic Church’s rich tradition of music and liturgy and was followed by a special pilgrimage dinner.
