August News from St Barnabas’ Anglican Church, Limassol and St Lazarus’ Church, Pissouri

We celebrated SEA SUNDAY during our Sunday service on 9th July.

Rev John Atkinson from the Mission to Seafarers talked about the work that is done , not just here in Limassol but throughout the world to make sure the crews aboard the ships that come into port are cared for both physically and spiritually giving them help and guidance wherever and whenever possible. Supported by a group of volunteers, there is nearly always someone to reach out a helping hand, offer advice or just listen. If you would like to help and be a volunteer please contact Rev John 99 539144.

Next month we shall start collecting items to go in gift boxes, these will wrapped and given out on the ships during the Christmas season. If you would like to donate items for this very worthwhile cause please contact Rev John or Christine Taylor at St Barnabas’ Church.
