This year on the evening of January 6th, the celebration of Epiphany, the Congregation of All Saints Anglican Church Algarve together with their friends and family joined together to continue with the long-established Anglican tradition of “Chalking the Doors”.
Last Sunday, on the 14th November 2021, All Saints Anglican Church Almancil, led the community in a solemn act of remembrance for all those who had given their lives in war in the service of their Country.
In the past 18 months we have all experienced some difficult times – some of us more than others, but during the days of the curfews, lockdowns and restrictions it seemed more than a little unusual to contemplate a Festival of Thanksgiving at All Saints Anglican Church Algarve in Almancil.
Over the years the Jardim das Comunidades in Almancil has hosted all kinds of community events. From Cafes to Picnics, from Concerts to the start of Rallys, from Children’s play areas to a dedicated exercise station, it is clearly a favourite spot for the people of Almancil to walk, relax and enjoy the gardens throughout the seasons.
Earlier this Summer Rev’d Mike and Linda Clarkson, the Priest and his wife of All Saints Anglican Church Algarve, stepped aboard a Plane en-route for a long overdue extended visit to their family on the West Coast of America.
At All Saints Church, Algarve we have just completed our third Alpha Course. The next course is due to start in September. Have you heard about Alpha? Would you like to find out more? Alpha is an enlightening series of talks shared in small groups to explore the meaning and questions many people have about life. Everyone has the opportunity to watch the excellent videos created by Alpha and afterwards hear about what others think of the ideas and questions that have been presented.
Christians believe that God made the world with all its beauty and diversity, that it all belongs to Him and during our lives we are stewards of this beautiful planet.
This Spring, All Saints Anglican Church Algarve are issuing an open invitation to everyone across the Algarve to join with them to experience ALPHA. An experience that to date over 20 million people in over 159 Countries and in 112 languages have enjoyed.
