Eight Hundred Years of Peace on Foot | Bristol News

Eight hundred years after Saint Francis of Assisi’s passing, a group of pilgrims is walking 80 days across England—from Northumberland to London—to honor his legacy of peace, simplicity, and care for the planet. They kicked off on July 17th, stopped in Gloucestershire for events at the Mariners Church, and are now heading through the Cotswolds, Bristol, and Oxford toward London by October. Sister Judi from the Society of St Francis shared how the journey has taught her to let go of control and reflect on those without it. Open to all—regardless of faith or background—this pilgrimage proves Francis’s message of peace still resonates powerfully today.
