A Pilgrimage of Peace on Palm Sunday

for 1 hour, 15 mins
St Nicholas Church , Abbotsbury
Church Street Abbotsbury Weymouth, DT3 4JJ, United Kingdom

Join Our ‘Pilgrimage of Peace’
This Palm Sunday, 13th April, we invite you to a reflective 2-mile circular walk from St Nicholas Church, Abbotsbury, starting at 2:30pm.
Together, we’ll journey to St Catherine’s Chapel and back, pausing along the way for peaceful readings, songs, and mindfulness practices. Walking in silence through nature, we’ll embrace the present moment, listening to our breath, feeling the world around us, and reflecting on ways to bring peace into our lives and communities.
At St Catherine’s Chapel, we’ll offer prayers for peace and gratitude for life’s gifts. As we return, palm crosses will remind us of the message of sacrificial love and humility—the power of peace over selfishness.
Come walk with us, breathe in peace, and share it with the world.

St Peter's Langton Herring

You are always welcome here, whether you are just passing through, or locally based. St Peter’s is a small Grade II listed building located in the centre of the picturesque village of Langton Herring, next to the Elm Tree Inn and the Village Hall. There is a sense of the sacred in this quiet, tranquil place for those seeking solitude, to pray, or the opportunity to simply sit quietly for a while. It is only 20 minutes on foot to the Fleet Lagoon behind Chesil Bank - a 17-mile stretch of shingle and a National Nature Reserve, itself a special unique place.

Services are held regularly and alternate each week, from more traditional 'prayer book' communion services and hymns to more informal reflective times, or family praise with worship songs and readings. Feel free to wander around our churchyard too.
