Living In Community

The Coronavirus outbreak caused us to close the Pilsdon Community on 17th March. For the first time in nearly 62 years the Pilsdon Community is sadly unable to welcome Wayfarers and visitors. Keep checking our website for more updates, as well as our twitter and instagram. Read our latest newsletter here.

Since 1958, the Pilsdon Community has been offering a refuge to people in crisis, welcoming those from all backgrounds and from many different walks of life – whether young or old, rich or poor. Pilsdon is a community that shares a common life of prayer, hospitality and work, providing an environment of acceptance and friendship where people can begin to rebuild their lives.

The community also welcomes people who wish to find a time to reflect on their lives before making a change in direction, or who just want time-out to share a common life, as part of a Christian community.

To all who come to Pilsdon we offer friendship, hospitality and acceptance. At any one time, Pilsdon is home to an average of twenty-five people and everyone who stays at Pilsdon - whether guest, visitor,  wayfarer, volunteer or community member - is invited to participate fully in the working and worship life of the Community.

Each year we are faced with a fundraising target of £30,000.00-£40,000.00 in order to provide the community with gardens, animals, and a place for people to feel welcome and valued and nurtured, and to keep bursaries for our guests within their means.

Please help us by setting up a regular donation today.

One afternoon a week at Pilsdon is dedicated to crafts, from pottery to woodworking to knitting. Adam throws a candlestick pic.twitter.com/N4EPgqucSz

There's nothing like a nice long walk to burn off those holiday calories! Frantisek, Simon, and James enjoy the landscape pic.twitter.com/CljcgjxWaF
