London Vicars are being offered martial arts lessons to help protect themselves.
They will be able to learn Tae kwon do, a way of defending yourself that is similar to Karate or Judo.
A recent survey showed that vicars are more likely to be attacked than doctors and that up to seven out of 10 vicars had experienced violence of some kind.
Protection without violence
Most threats are made to vicars when they are at home, although some attacks do take place in church.
It's hoped Tae kwon do will help them protect themselves without having to be too violent.
