Recently the Reverend James Percival, Rector of Limpsfield & Titsey at St Peter’s Limpsfield, made a very special journey to Israel and Palestine to gain first-hand knowledge of an area so important to many faiths. From Wednesday January 11th, he will be running four sessions on his study pilgrimage; covering geography, history, theology and sacred stories – past, present and future.
Everyone is welcome – all faiths or no faith – and no questions are off the table! There will be separate sessions for children.
