Send us your eventA dicovery of London walking tours
Perhaps we associate pilgrimage rather with rural areas than with a metropolis, and yet to discover a city from a pilgrim’s perspective has its very own charm. In collaboration with Reverend Michael Schaar from the pilgrimage centre in Zurich, we invite you to put on your hiking shoes and to join us on this spiritual journey. A group from Zurich will travel to London to get to experience our city in a new light. It would be wonderful if some members of the Swiss Church and the Swiss community in London would join the group to build new friendships and tell our visitors more about life in London.
