About this Event
St Peter’s Methodist Church, Canterbury
Heritage Open Day: Find out about John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, who visited Canterbury some forty times. See pictures of how the church, erected 1811, has changed – or join in a children’s trail round it. Enjoy displays and music by charities and organisations The Heritage Open Days theme for 2024, ‘Routes, Networks, and Connections’, will be explored in St Peter’s Methodist Church on Saturday 14 September with reference both to the past and the present. The founder of Methodism, John Wesley, famously proclaimed ‘the world is my parish’: he rode round the country preaching, covering more than 200,000 miles, the equivalent of going round the world several times.
