The past week has been busy and blessed for this Chaplaincy, a delightful concert on the last day of September, Fr. Marcus’s collation by our Diocesan Bishop Robert on the Friday (after the two of them with Sandra and 2 Davids climbed the Peñon de Ifach rock for which the Costa Blanca is so famous, and from where Bishop Robert pronounced a blessing on the whole parish) and the generosity of Harvest Festivals in every church on the Sunday. The food and other gifts given at these services has all been distributed to the various charities chosen: food banks, children’s homes and the refuge at Gandia.
This week our churches are all operating services at their normal times, with each celebrating the Eucharist. Our weekly service in Alfaz continues on Thursdays.
In all our churches we are committed to abide by the current regulations; sanitation, social distancing, mask wearing and personal sanitising on entry. We continue to keep a record of attendees for track and trace purposes if needed.
Do join us at one of our services if you can.
Full details of these weekly communion services can be found at this page – https://costablanca-anglicanchaplaincy.org/churches-and-services-3/.
Fr. Rodney and Fr. Robin will be broadcasting their now regular communion service on Fr. Rodney’s Facebook page. It will be “streamed” live on Sunday at 10am Spanish time (9am BST) and then available all day on Sunday, to join at your leisure. As always both the live broadcast and the recording will be available on the following page – https://www.facebook.com/rodney.middleton.940. If you are not ready or not able to join us in one of our churches this is a wonderful way to share our worship.
And remember to tune in to Fr. Marcus for his live Sunday radio programme, between 6pm and 8pm, Spanish time, on Pure Gold FM. You can listen on the radio on 94.1 FM. Or on your computer, tablet or phone join through the listen live button on https://puregold.fm/.
