160th Anniversary – 160 Days of Prayer
From Monday 10 February until Sunday 20 July we are inviting anyone and everyone to join in a simple daily prayer – at home, at work, wherever you are. If you can, please just take a little time at 12 noon to say these prayers (there will also be paper copies at church). We hope that every day we have at least 2 or 3 or more people gathered “together” wherever you are, forming a virtual prayer group.

We also ask for your support for our 160 x 160 Anniversary Appeal. In a 5-year project from 2015–2019 much essential work on the church was carried out. But there is still – always – work to be done! The goal is for (at least) 160 people to give €160 for our 2025/26 renovation projects. On the occasion of our 160th anniversary we will restore the apse/chancel (damp treatment, replastering, and repainting for at least €61,000) and have upgraded the sound system (new loudspeakers for around €3.300). In 2026 there will be further work outside on the brickwork behind the apse: The more we raise, the more we can do!
