A
"HEART WARMING" EXPERIENCE…
n
the introduction to his work “In the steps of
John Wesley” Fredrick C. Gill said: “Why
go back to Wesley? The answer is that, like a tree,
no great movement, can live if cut from its roots; it
needs constantly to refresh its spirit by remembering
its origin and returning to the source of its strength.”
At
Casterbridge Church Tours we have established channels
for facilitating special visits to traditional sites
of religious importance to Methodists, such as Epworth,
Oxford, Bristol or Aldersgate Street in London, scene
of Wesley’s “heart-warming experience.”
In addition, our extensive research allows us to offer
many lesser-known regions for your John Wesley tour,
such as Wales, Jersey or Guernsey, as well as visits
linked to the life of Bishop Francis Asbury, founding
father of the American Methodist Church. So follow in
John Wesley’s footsteps and look upon the entire
world as your parish as you explore his legacy on our
"Methodist
Heritage" tour that emphasizes the contributions
of John and Charles Wesley, as well as those of Francis
Asbury. This tour explores the growth of Methodism from
its humble beginnings in the "New Room" at
Bristol to Christ Church where John Wesley studied and
preached.
We
offer unique Methodist religious experiences that your
group may wish to add to your John Wesley Tour. We can
arrange meetings with other Methodist churches in any
city that you will visit. We offer private Methodist
Church services or the opportunity for your accompanying
minister to officiate at a service during your journey.
With a contingent of choir members along who would like
to sing, we can arrange performances for your Church
Choir at local churches or in some of the world's great
Methodist heritage sites. If you would like for your
John Wesley tour to have more of a mission element,
we can arrange for charitable visits or community service
at local Methodist churches, homes for the elderly,
hospitals and clinics.
