Dreaming of running away from church - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reflect a wish to step away for a while from the pressure and scrutiny you felt there, rather than from faith or the community itself.
You hurry out the door from inside the church or after the service ends. You may feel as though someone is following you, or only catch your breath once you are outside.
