Church in a dream
A church in a dream is read in folk tradition as a sign of inner peace, composure and a need for quiet.

If you felt serene in the dream, it is believed that some worry is slowly coming undone. After a dream like this many people feel like getting in touch with someone dear or making peace with someone, and old folk consider that its loveliest message.
