Yes I had heard talk of this and feel sorry for the people that attended the Anglican services and of course anyone who was planning a wedding/blessing there, hopefully another venue can be found quickly.
|
We're supposed to have a blessing in St Andrews next Sept! We have already paid for the Church, does anyone know if we can still have a Catholic ceremony there(we're Catholic anyway but the blessing was arranged through Irene from the Anglican Church)
|
Does anyone have the details of St. Dominics chuch in Pollensa Old town??
Thanks, Michael |

It's a great shame if this does come to pass, as seems likely from the announcement above. When walking across 'the square' on a Sunday morning about 9-30 'ish' during holidays it is a great pleasure to hear singing from the Anglican services held during that time (9am 'til 10am). So much so that I have attended a service at the Church during my hol's and it was a most pleasant and enlightening occasion. The congregation seem to be a dedicated bunch of people and I understand that they do much for charity in the PP area. Many people on holiday as well as 'locals' attend the services. Good luck to them in their search for a new venue if this is the way it has to be.

Bella this info is for the Tourist Information Office, the only info i can find on this website is for the PP church in the square. |

I have found this in the yellow pages, where the only Pollensa Town church listed is :- Parroquia Nuestra Senora de los Angeles tel. 971 530 067.

Thank you Sparky, I had already enquired about this church after we found out we couldn't have our blessing in the Calvari Chapel at the top of the 365 steps due to refurbishments, there is no agreement to hold Anglican ceremonies in the church in pollensa(I wonder about Catholic blessings though?)
|
Irene has emailed back, she said that I shouldn't worry and she is sure that all weddings/blessings for next year will be fine. She has also passed my email onto the Anglican Reverend David Waller in Palma so hopefully he can shed some light.

Mickey, if you don't get through to the Tourist Board number, you could try this one. Its really difficult to find any info directly from the church itself, but getting through to the sites that deal with them should be able to point you in the right direction for the info you need. :)

Michelle that's good news, lets hope all goes according to plan for you :D.
As for a Catholic blessing, i suppose it would be fine as you are Catholic but i wonder what language the service would be in, does anyone know if the local priest speaks English? :confused::confused:. |
I don't think he speaks English but not 100% sure. The Anglicans are still hopeful of resolving the problem. So as said earlier might be best to wait and see.
For anyone interested there will be a Songs of Praise on the Beach at Tamarells this Sunday. |
