Chaplaincy of Aquitaine

A vision of communities that grow and practise the love of Jesus...and share it generously with others.

The Chaplaincy considers Safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults to be of utmost importance.

Message from Tony: 

I am hugely grateful to those of you who have already taken steps to make regular or one-off donations to the Chaplaincy over the last couple of months. As the country slowly moves out of lockdown we are faced with a whole new set of challenges. It is likely to be a considerable time yet before we can hope that our financial situation will return to a more normal pattern and so we are still deeply reliant on your generosity and giving as part of your discipleship.

We will, therefore, continue to be particularly grateful if you feel able to make donations (one-off or regular) that might compensate for the loss of ‘plate giving’ and fund-raising events. This can be done through your bank by prélèvement (standing order) or by our online giving page.

I long for a time when we will be able to meet again, but in the meantime we will continue to provide opportunities for various forms of worship, study, prayer and pastoral support online.Thank you for your commitment to the life of this wonderful Chaplaincy. Blessings, Tony

A warm welcome from our Chaplain, Rev'd Tony Lomas We are on a 'shared journey: growing in Christ.' We are far from perfect, yet we strive to love, pray and live like Jesus. We are convinced that if we open ourselves to Jesus, by listening to his Word and the Holy Spirit (and act on that!!), we will bear much fruit (John 15). We hope that many will join us on that exciting journey...including you!

The Chaplaincy of Aquitaine first came into being in 1825, when a church community was established in Bordeaux. In south-west France it seems that there have always been people seeking to worship God in the English language, and so for almost 195 years we have been able, as the Psalmist puts it, to ‘sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land’.(Psalm 137:14) Read more about the Chaplaincy's growth over the years in Aquitaine.
