Transformational Glastonbury

Since 2007, the Pilgrim Reception Centre, a not-for-profit organisation, has been supporting and welcoming people to Glastonbury.  Recognised
 as being open to all paths, we have been described as a 'living bridge' that connects across the spiritual and secular communities; we feel that spreading a harmonious message is an important part of our role and we are constantly looking at new ways of responding to  the positive flow of energy.


As you might be aware,  we recently launched an appeal.  Our working model and the difficult economic climate had taken us to a point of no longer being able to continue. Our imminent closure in April pushed us into exploring alternative ways of operating; on a spiritual journey, this period is often described as a 'dark night of the soul'.
The PRC has been an organic organisation since its conception and our work over the last few years has taken us beyond the originally envisaged purposes. As in any spiritual journey, life for the PRC and all those involved with it, has been a voyage of discovery, adventure and challenge. 

Picture
With this in mind, responding to the energies around us and the recognition 
of our organisation as being a place that supports all those on a spiritual journey, we feel now is the time in which to create a space that offers not only practical support and information but also a special place created not from any one faith or religion and where real spiritual encounter might also be experienced. 

We had only a short window of time in which to present the idea, launch the appeal and gauge reaction but the responses and the comments have been very heartening indeed. The vibrant flow of new and supportive, pro-active energy means we feel confident enough to move into the future.  Our warm thanks are extended to all those who have encouraged and inspired us onwards.  

We shall now continue the process of transformation by creating within our premises a special sanctuary space that is not affiliated to any one belief and where Glastonbury residents, pilgrims and visitors can relax in a gentle atmosphere that celebrates and inspires our Unity through Diversity. The services we have previously offered to our visitors and residents – information, support and the opportunity to share experiences - will all continue. We have listened to all the feedback being offered to us and have responded to as much as we can within our resources. 

Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers and to those who have supported us this far with your support over the years. Without you, none of this would have been possible.

We do need your financial 
support to keep our Centre open
through these difficult economic challenges. 



If our work has supported you and you would like to support us in return, please consider a donation. 

Thank you.

A Glastonbury Peace Garden for Glastonbury in Bloom

3/12/2014

Would you like to help us with a Peace Garden for 'Glastonbury in Bloom'?
Picture
Glastonbury in Bloom has been overseen by Cllr. Alan Gloak who has given years of dedication to create the wonderful displays that we have enjoyed around the town.

Alan has now retired from this and the task is being undertaken by a newly formed sub-committee of Glastonbury Town Council. Morgana West, PRC Manager is on the team and on behalf of the PRC has pledged to sponsor a space for the summer. This space is the one at the front of St Dunstan's car park where we planted a Peace Pole last year. The Glastonbury Bench faces both ways and the flower beds either side have already been cleared in preparation.



Picture
Glastonbury in Bloom has always followed a theme and the colours this year are the purple, white and greens of the Suffragettes: purple symbolised dignity, white purity, and green hope.

Our sponsorship is to plant up and care for the area throughout the year so if this is something that takes the fancy of any of the green-fingered Glastonbury community - or even those visitors that plan on coming for a shortwhile - do let us know. We shall be establishing a rota of volunteers with set times and periods for being on duty.
