Food for Thought - St Helena's Angels (article in Larnaka
News Magazine)
St Helena’s is the local community representing a worldwide Anglican Communion that includes the Church of England, the Church in Wales and the Episcopalian Church in America. Cyprus is part of the Anglican Church of Jerusalem and the Middle East. There are Anglican churches in all the main towns, throughout the whole island of Cyprus, and St Helena’s Larnaca is opposite the old hospital near the bus stops in the centre of town...
St Helena's Luncheon Club
The inaugural meeting of
the St Helena’s
Luncheon Club took place on October 5th 2011. 24
people tucked into a hearty meal of roast pork, followed by home made
apple crumble and custard, and tea or coffee.
This new initiative attempts to bring people together socially for a meal once each month. The Club will be meeting on the first Wednesday of each month. The membership fee is 5 euros per year, and each meal also costs 5 euros.
The general impression
after the first
meeting was that the meal represented fantastic value. Ladies from St
Helena’s form the cooks, waiters and washers-up, but membership of the
Club is open to anyone, as long as numbers allow. A waiting list will
operate if needed. Chaplain John Holdsworth said: “I’m very encouraged both by the way the church has responded so enthusiastically, and by the comments of the first members. I hope it goes from strength to strength.”
Visit to St George's Church
Over 20 members of St
Helena's visited the beautiful church of St George in the Troodos on
July 3rd. Following a picnic lunch at a mountain site, members joined
together for a service of Evensong, led by the Chaplain Ven Dr John
Holdsworth. St George's has been described as the most interesting
Anglican church building in Cyprus. It is open for services at 4pm each
Sunday in the Summer.
