Pentecost
2026-05-24 15:30 - 18:00
Each year, around the feast of Pentecost, Christians from across Buckden and the surrounding villages come together at Buckden Towers for a shared celebration of faith, unity, and community.
Organised by Buckden Churches Together, the gathering reflects the wider pattern of collaboration between local churches—bringing people together not only for worship, but also for fellowship and mutual support. Throughout the year, the group hosts events such as shared services, discussions, and community gatherings, building relationships across traditions.
🔥 A shared celebration of Pentecost
Pentecost marks the moment when the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the early Church—a celebration of unity in diversity, which is at the heart of this gathering.
At Buckden Towers, this is expressed through:

A shared act of worship, drawing together different Christian traditions
A spirit of welcome and openness, with all invited to take part
Opportunities for conversation, connection, and friendship

Previous gatherings have created a warm and prayerful atmosphere, where people from different churches come together not simply as visitors, but as one community—sharing faith, stories, and hospitality.
🌿 A setting that brings people together
Held within the beautiful grounds of Buckden Towers, the event benefits from a setting that naturally encourages reflection and encounter. The open space, historic surroundings, and relaxed environment allow the gathering to feel both grounded and uplifting—a moment set apart within the year.
🙌 An invitation for this year
All are warmly invited to join this year’s Pentecost gathering—whether you are part of a local church, new to the area, or simply curious to experience a moment of shared worship and community.
It is a chance to:

celebrate Pentecost together
meet others from across the local churches
and be part of a growing sense of unity in Buckden

✨ A moment of unity
In a busy world, this gathering offers something simple but powerful: a reminder that, even across different traditions, we are called together—one community, one Spirit.
