For Anglicans in Spain, Pentecost wind whispers through the carob trees

The three congregations of St Christopher’s on the Costa Azahar, north of Valencia, united in the service in a church member’s large garden overlooking the Mediterranean in Ampolla.

Their Australian locum priest, Fr. Kevin Ellem, spoke passionately of the power of God’s Spirit to invigorate His Church today. Fr Kevin added a native touch to the occasion by leading the service wearing an outback approved sun hat.

Read it all and enjoy the pictures.

One comment on “For Anglicans in Spain, Pentecost wind whispers through the carob trees

    The website of the diocese of Europe says:
    [blockquote] “The Church of England maintains friendly relations with other Christian churches in mainland Europe and is committed to the quest for the full visible unity of the Church.” [/blockquote]
    Great. But what I can’t find anywhere on it is a statement that their mission is to seek and save the lost, or to witness to the gospel, or to make disciples and plant churches, or anything similar.

    I wonder if any Global South provinces have constituencies in Europe that need to be ministered to by a mission-minded priest with oversight from a mission-minded province?
