Origins?       

 

Our congregation now meets in the Church in Bertric Burée.  Previously, we met either in the nearby town of Riberac or in the village of Chapdeuil.

What?           

 

Church of England forms of worship are used for all services. Congregations of over 40 are usual throughout the year, growing for major festivals.

 

Music to suit all tastes is provided by the choir, organ or the music group. Our musicians and singers meet at least once a month to learn new hymns and to practice old ones as well as songs for the coming services. We have started a fund to buy a new organ to support worship in our new church.

Six active Home Groups meet regularly for Bible Study near Montpon, Thiviers, Verteillac, Grand Brassac and Riberac.

A Prayer meeting is held monthly before the Service of the Word on the 1st Sunday at 9.45am. We also produce a comprehensive Monthly Prayer Guide.

Throughout the year, events such as the Summer Fête, Harvest Supper and a Barn Dance provide events for regular members and new friends to meet and enjoy social activities.

Each month there is an organised walk of up to 12kms. We meet at around 10.30am with a picnic lunch and enjoy getting to know each other, as well as the local countryside, better.

 

From time to time, some of the congregation meet for lunch following the midweek service in the nearby restaurant.

 

A Ladies Group meets once a month on the third Thursday afternoons. These gatherings include demonstrations, talks or outings to a places of interest.
