Welcome to all visitors - Tourists, Seekers and Pilgrims

A place where your mind can be idle, and forget its concerns, descend into silence, and worship in secret.— Thomas Merton

Small Pilgrim Places are:

• Spaces for pondering, breathing, meditating, praying and ‘being’
• Small places, not those already on the map, well-known, or that draw crowds;
• Simple, quiet and unpretentious, with the presence of the Divine;
• Places of worship, gardens, ruins, open spaces, holy wells, etc.;
• Welcoming and inclusive.

The Small Pilgrim Places Network:

• Brings together people who support the ethos of SPPs through prayer and practical support;
• Encourages members to promote the key elements of SPPs - quiet prayer and meditation, hospitality, silence, space and simplicity not only in SPPs but also in their own personal situations;
• Is mutually supportive, encouraging the exchange of experiences, inspiration and practicalities.
