**An Evening of Fellowship and Reflection**
Last night, a group of nine members from our three churches gathered for an unforgettable evening walk with a pilgrim. We journeyed 10km through the stunning countryside of Querença, passing by the serene Fonte da Benémola. Along the way, we engaged in inspiring conversations with Fr. Steve Danzey about the Camino de Santiago experience.
Our walk concluded with a fabulous meal in Querença, where we were joined by two more friends, sharing in friendship and fellowship. The evening was crowned with an outdoor Compline, enriched by the online presence of friends from St Luke’s and Boliqueime, set against the incredible backdrop of Querença Church.
It was truly an evening to remember, filled with spiritual reflection, community bonding, and the beauty of nature.

World Day of Prayer Service 1 March 2024
Some images from this service, with thanks to everyone who attended and helped. As we heard, it's not easy being a woman from a minority faith community in a war zone. 🙏❤️🌈
