Welcome to the
Homepage of St. Michael's |
|
Welcome to the web-site of St.
Michael's Anglican Church, located in Beaulieu-sur-Mer in the
South of France. |
| We
are a relatively small community, but alive, active and
welcoming, representing people of every age and of a wide
variety of nationalities - including English, Welsh, Scottish,
Irish, American, Canadian, Australian, German, Dutch,
Icelandic, Finnish and Romanian. |
| Our
worship centres on our 10 o'clock Sunday Eucharist, celebrated
according to Common Worship order one and followed by
refreshments in the garden or in the south aisle. |
| Our
congregation includes Lutherans, Presbyterians and Roman
Catholics, many of whom play a leading role in our activities;
we have excellent relations with the town council and with the
French Catholic parish and our church is also used by the
Danish Lutheran community on the Cote d'Azur. |
| The
Chaplain is Canon Roger Greenacre, formerly of St. George's
Paris, and of Chichester Cathedral. We serve the area between
Nice and Monaco; Villefranche, St. Jean - Cap Ferrat,
Beaulieu, Eze and Cap d'Ail. |
| In
2003 we celebrated the centenary of the church's consecration
with a music festival and an ecumenical procession through the
town from St. Michael's to the church of the Sacrė-Coeur
with the Bishop of Nice and the Archbishop of York. |
|
St Michael’s
is a chaplaincy of the Diocese in Europe whose mission is to
serve Anglican and English-speaking people throughout Europe,
plus Morocco, Turkey and the whole of the former Soviet Union.
There are currently chaplaincies in 44 countries ranging from
Morocco to Iceland and from Portugal to Mongolia.
