We were delighted to welcome a lively group of 24 people from the Netherlands to our service on Sunday.

The group, who are visiting Kyrenia, joined in the service with great enthusiasm – some even lingering to discuss the sermon afterwards!

Many thanks to their tour guide Okan Sadrazam for arranging this.

What a pleasure to meet the Revd Dr Walter Brownridge and his wife Tina, from Vermont USA.
Dr Walter has been doing locum cover at St Paula’s Cathedral, Nicosia since early July.
He and Tina will be returning to their work in Vermont at the end of next week.
Canon Georgia Katsantonis brought Tina and Walter to Kyrenia, before heading to Bellapais and on to Famagusta.
Dr Walter and Fr Alec were delighted to discover they had much in common, including mutual friends in the Anglican Communion.

Rev’d Deborah Moorgas, priest at St Barnabas has thanked St Andrew’s for the money donated to help victims of the fires in the Limassol area.
They are very grateful for all the generous help they have received.

Dear Friends

The Reverend Deborah Moorgas, together with a team from St Barnabas Church Limassol, invite you to join them via Zoom in prayer tomorrow, Tuesday 5th August at 6 pm (Cyprus) in a service of Evening prayer with intercessions offered for peace in our world and in our hearts, and for the needs of the Diocese, its parishes and individuals.
