Ascension day is 29th May this year and the Anglican Church of Lorgues with Fayence has invited all the chaplaincies of the Riviera to come and share in Worship and Fellowship in Lorgues at the home of the Massey's. (Arc-en-Provence)
Worshiping and having fun in the garden comes naturally to the folk in Lorgues as their church meets there during the summer months each month. Ascension day has also always been an important date for the former Prasada Community and it will be good to continue the celebration of Ascension in our new church. This year is the 25th anniversary of that community in France and Sister Jean , who founded it with Sister Cecile, will be back in France to share the day with us all. So we hope you will be able to join us Please mark this day off in your diary as you are both welcome and needed !
The Anglican Church of Lorgues with Fayence.
We will be having a short Communion Service here before lunch so everyone has a chance to celebrate the Ascension. Bernadette Daly, who is a Church of Ireland minister and helps us here in Lorgues and Fayence when she is in France, will share a few thoughts with us on this special day and its meaning for each one of us.
The proposed timetable for the day is:
- 10.45 Coffee
- 11.15 Ascension Communion Service.
- 12.15 Picnic Lunch ( Bring and Share )
After lunch you are welcome to use the pool or enjoy The garden or simply catch up with what is going on in the other Chaplaincies along the Riviera. We expect to finish by about 4.00 but there is no timetable for when you may want to head for home. Directions to Arc-en-Provence will be available a bit nearer the date.
