Capellania Anglicana de la Costa Blanca
Benidorm: LA ALMUDENA
About the church:
The Benidorm congregation is a very friendly crowd living in Benidorm and the surrounding districts, such as Alfaz del Pi and its seaside area, Albir; the fishing port of Altea, and the inland districts of Finestrat and La Nucia.
During the summer months a small band of enthusiastic members maintain our worship and social life. From September onwards, the winter visitors begin to arrive, swelling the numbers in church considerably.
Church members are actively involved with Help International which provides pastoral care and advice to expatriates. We are also represented in the British Legion and the Alfaz Theatre Group; and are involved with a number of sporting activities - bowls, tennis and petanque.
You will be very welcome to join us on either a Sunday or a Thursday, and to stay for coffee afterwards.
Directions:
The church is two blocks south of Benidorm railway station, and one block in from the Avinguda de Beniarda which runs north from the top of the town towards La Nucia.
From the sea-front this is an uphill struggle on foot, so some form of transport may be desirable.
Aim for the railway station. Pass the front of the station and immediately take the next turning left.
A few metres after the next junction, you will find the church on the left.
This is a mainly residential area, and a network of one-way streets, but it is usually possible to park somewhere close by.
Between the station and the church, to your right about 200m away is some open ground where you can park if all else fails.
We use the Chapel under the main church - enter by the left-hand lower doors.
