Orders of Service were handed over at Ledra Palace by the Bishop himself and are now in Kyrenia.
Bishop Sean will be following in a day or two.

We look forward very much to welcoming our new Bishop to our church! 

If you get a chance, do visit the charity exhibition Elina from St. Andrew’s has put on of her students’ work. It is of a very high standard and well worth a visit!
The beautiful, vibrant oil painting of the harbour was painted collaboratively, with all of the students contributing.

It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of the Reverend Michael Houston, on Tuesday 11 June at the Ulster Hospital, Dundonald.

Michael was Priest of St. Andrew’s from 2007 – 2010. He was very highly regarded and much-loved by our congregation. Michael will be sadly missed.

We hold Michael’s wife, June, in our thoughts and in our prayers, at this very sad time.

Eid Mubarak to all of our Muslim friends and neighbours.

Please invite your friends! 

Many congratulations to our Assistant Treasurer and Sidesperson, Leo Igwe, who has just graduated from the American University of Girne with a Master’s Degree in Business Management.

Leo contributes to the smooth running of our church in so many ways and is a huge asset to us, as he undoubtedly will be to his future employers. We wish him every success in his career.

The Thursday Bible Study series on Genesis concluded this week with a lively and thought-provoking discussion on Noah and the Flood.
