Doudrac

L'Eglise Saint Jean Baptiste in Doudrac (47210) is located on the D250 is about 5 kms west of Villereal. This congregation at Doudrac has grown to meet the needs of the growing number of English speaking people in the area in the north-east Lot-et-Garonne. The local mayor and the Abbé of Montflanquin have been very supportive, and are delighted that this lovely old church is being used on a regular basis by an ever growing congregation.

Our congregation is drawn from across the north, east and central Lot et Garonne and from the southern Dordogne.

Our special thanks are due to the parish of Sainte Therese de l’Enfant Jesu des Bastides and to the Commune of Doudrac for allowing us to share with them the Church of St John the Baptist and the Salle des Fetes.

Holy Communion is held every first Sunday at 11h00, and Evening Worship on every third Sunday. Church of England forms of worship are used. Also, we hold a Harvest Festival in the Autumn, as well as a Bilingual service of Christmas Carols which has become a well-received tradition. Congregations of over 30 are usual throughout the year, with numbers doubling for major festivals. All are welcome to join us!

June - so much to celebrate!

At the June service at Doudrac we celebrated both Pentecost and The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

The service was led by Rev Liz Morris and the Preacher was Roger Cheale. Roger spoke about where and how does power lie. He wove together the themes of The power of The Holy Spirit and the power of the Sovereign. Not power by force, or military might.

After the service we had a Bring and Share Jubilee BBQ. This was the first occasion that we were all able to celebrate with a meal at Doudrac.

2021 Summer festivities!

In July we were invited to the home of Graham and Terry Davison for a Holy Communion service and BBQ in their orchard. The service was led by Rev Liz. It was wonderful to be worshipping under dappled shade and to join with many friends from the Lot et Garonne.

In August at the home of Liz and Dave Rolfe there was a Jazz and Curry evening. Rev'd Bramwell led the Jazz duo. With a full capacity audience, everyone enjoyed the evening and we raised money for our L et G charities. A BIG Thank You to Liz, Dave and Bram.

Delighted to gather again for worship at Envals!

On 13th July we were invited to the home of Liz and Dave Rolfe for House Communion. There were 17 of us. Rev'd Liz preached on the readings about Amos and John the Baptist. Both Amos and John’s message were about where the people had gone wrong and how they had ignored God’s instructions for living. We are encouraged to stand up against many ways of this world. To stand up for justice and the loving treatment of others. After the service we were invited to stay for lunch in the school house dining room. A really Big Thank You to Liz and Dave for their hospitality.

Saint Médard

L'Eglise Saint Médard in St Médard, in the commune of Clermont Dessous (47130) is one of the churches in the Lot et Garonne in which Anglican services are occasionally held.

The first service was at Christmas 2011, a Carol Service of Nine Lessons and Carols, held jointly with the Catholic church and was conducted equally in English and French. We are delighted that this has become an annual tradition.

Previously there were generally four services held each year: Easter Sunday, Summer service in July, Harvest Festival in September and the Christmas Carol Service, with the local community in English and French, in December.

The GPS coordinates are: 44.252324 - 0.457481

Our Thanks We are very grateful to Père Jean-Jacques Fauconnet for allowing the Chaplaincy of Aquitaine to conduct services in this church. We are lucky to have the use of such a lovely church. Thanks also go to the Mayor and people of St Médard, Clermont Dessous for their support, especially Carol Spires who prepares the church so beautifully for the services.
