Prayers were recited in Lithuanian before the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham, in the Slipper Chapel, Walsingharn, Norfolk, on Sunday, almost certainly the first occasion on which that tongue has been used in public devotions in the chapel since its foundation over six hundred years ago.
The Rev. J. Sakevicus, who led a pilgrimage of members of the Lithuanian colony in London from their church of St. Casimir, Hackney Road, E.2, preached in Lithuanian.
