Church News and Events

 

For most of the year there are lots of things happening in our Parish and members of our congregations, friends and visitors are all welcome to share in them. 

On the following pages you will find news of things that have happened recently as well as forthcoming events, including the list of parish trips.

Remembrance Sunday
Mothers’ Union  
On Mothering Sunday 2009 we launched a new branch of the Mothers’ Union in this parish. 

Several new members joined and others had been members previously.  We were pleased to welcome our Diocesan President, Mrs Barbara Woods, to our meeting on 10 June.  Our branch meets on the 1st Wednesday of each month. 

Our Leader is Margaret Campbell +34 696 062 864

Have you moved to a new home?  
It is not unusual for people who come and live in our parish to move to a different apartment, house or villa. 

The Church provides a lovely short service of Blessing of a Home, which some feel is very appropriate as they settle into a new home  - and it provides an ideal opportunity to have a home-warming party! 

If you would like Fr Geoff to come and bless your home, please ask him!

Taizé Prayer

A monthly Taizé Prayer is held in the Parroquial Virgen de la Antigua, Almuñecar.  This is an ecumenical service led by Fr Geoff and Don Antonio Jesus. This is a quiet, reflective form of worship based on the worship of the Community at Taizé, during which a number of the famous Taizé songs are sung and it will include a period of silence.  For the date of the next service please ring one of the Church Wardens.

 

Services at Residencia Costa Tropical  

A monthly Eucharist is held in the Chapel of

the Residencia Costa Tropical, Almuñecar

which is attended by some residents of the

home as well as some members of our

congregations. For the date of the next Eucharist, please ring one of the Church Wardens.

 

          This Home is run by the

        Evangelisches Johanneswerk

            of the German Church.

 

Easter Lunch and Bonnet Parade

 

Once again this was a most enjoyable occasion when a current and former churchwarden entered the Easter Bonnet parade!

 

 

 

Beetle Drive

 

As part of our Autumn programme

we are holding a beetle drive

on Monday, 8th November at the
