This week at St Helena's

Thought from Scripture

"Men of Gallilee," they said, 'why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."

Acts 1:11

Who we are

St Helena's is an English language church located in the centre of Larnaca on the south east coast of Cyprus. Since 1907 Christian worship has been offered from our premises.

Though we are in the tradition of the Church of England, our members come from many backgrounds and countries, and participate fully in the life and service of God.

Our primary work at St Helena's is ministry to English speakers in a radius of about 30km around Larnaca.

Our activities (mostly cancelled during the summer months)

St Helena's offers Bible study, pastoral care, three weekday prayer groups and one on Sundays before the morning service, mid-week Holy Communion, social events and a ladies fellowship. Much caring goes on member-to-member informally. Healing services are held on occasion. The services page has more detail, and information about forthcoming special services. 

Weddings

Weddings are central to the work of St Helena's. We provide wedding preparation and ceremonies for many couples each year, both local and from the UK. Our weddings are in the Church of England style and are conducted either at the church or at one of the several local hotels.  The weddings page has more information. 

Funerals

Each year St Helena's is called upon to conduct about 20 funerals - most for people who do not attend the church, but of British background and who lived in Cyprus. Preparation with the family and if desired, after-care following the funeral are offered.
