WELCOMING YOU HOME

We welcome you wherever you are in your walk in faith.

We are an Episcopal parish of the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe, and a member of the Anglican Communion. We celebrate our diversity, and are a multinational congregation from a wide range of denominational and non-Christian backgrounds. Our services are in English each Sunday, and we also offer bilingual services.

The Season after Pentecost

We invite you to join us at Emmanuel Episcopal Church either in person or online, for our dedicated Services. (Please note that the entrance to the Sanctuary is on Rue Dr Alfred Vincent).

Services will generally be as follows:

Sundays

08:30 Holy Eucharist (said)

(In the Parish Hall, entrance on Rue de Monthoux).

10:30 Holy Eucharist or Morning Prayer (with music)

Gathered at the church and livestreamed.

(The entrance to the Sanctuary is on Rue Dr Alfred Vincent).

La Sainte Euchariste en français

La Sainte Euchariste sera célébrée, en français, à Emmanuel à 17h aux dates suivants: le samedi 5 octobre; le samedi 2 novembre; le samedi 7 décembre.

Il s'agira d'un service de 40 minutes destiné à répondre aux besoins spirituels des paroissiens francophones. Nous espérons constituer un noyau de paroissiens engagés qui soutiendront cette initiative. Si vous souhaitez participer, veuillez vous adresser à Erin Lederrey, au diacre Richard ou au recteur.

Access to the Church

On occasions, events around the church make access difficult. We can usually warn of these problems. If we miss anything, the Geneva Police do give details here a few days ahead of time.

Until summer 2025, road works around the Place des Alpes will affect some access routes and parking near to the church. More details here.

Joining in and helping others, and being helped if you need it

There are many ways to join in the life of the church: some by helping others inside our community to build a strong group of people who are ready to reach out to others; and some by directly giving time and energy to those in obvious need: the hungry, refugees etc.

"Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

There is a place for everyone: gardeners, singers, writers, camera operators, washers of dishes . . . look here to see how you can use your talents to make a better world.

Help others by volunteering with us:

The "Jardin de Monbrillant" feeds 300, or more, people in need each day. We contribute one day each month.

Our next participation in the Jardin de Montbrillant will take place on November 30th. We will also take responsibility for December 28th, if we have enough volunteers. We work from 8:30 to 13:00, but you can contribute whatever time you have.

You can sign up here.

Every Wednesday at 15:00, Tea and Refreshments are provided for Refugees, in the Parish Hall, as part of our Welcoming Project. Volunteers are welcome for this and our other projects, which have included French Classes and an English Language "Camp" for children. Use this link to sign up, or ask for further details.
