On Sunday, March 31 at 4pm, there will be an English-language Easter Sunday Mass at the Chapel of Our Lady of the Incarnation – Ermida da Nossa Senhora da Encarnação – on the eastern cliffs above Carvoeiro.
Come and celebrate the joy of the Risen Lord!
The whole Mass will be in English: the readings, the hymns as well as the Order of Mass. All residents and visitors are welcome. Padre Nuno Coelho, our parish priest, will be the celebrant.
There will be a retiring collection for the Lagoa Cáritas Food Bank, which helps over 100 families in need at this time.
