Activity

  1. Policy plan
    The national policy plan is to be found at the website of the Archdeaconry www.anglican.nl. The local policy is summarised here:  Main policy is to proceed with the intensifying of the work of our Church, with the contribution of all, for creating a thriving Church community in which more and more people feel at home and feel supported in their religious life.
    Where possible we contribute to joint activities within the Diocese of Europe of the Anglican Church.
    Our financial situation is improving through careful attention. Costs are kept as low as possible. This means that, although the Chaplaincy may have paid staff and other workers, and may also compensate volunteer workers for their activities to the maximum allowable annual amount, we do not expect any other payment of fees or the like except for visiting clergy and organist.
  2. Objectives
    The Anglican Church Haarlem offers a place of worship for the English-speaking community in and around the Haarlem area and visitors from home and abroad to meditate, pray and worship, privately and together. We support people in their understanding and approach to life and faith. We are called to sharing the joy of God’s unconditional love in faith and action. We commit ourselves to contributing to a world where love, reconciliation, tolerance, equality and peace can prevail. We are an open, welcoming church, which exists for the community as a whole and where everyone is valued and respected. Charitable activities also include work among asylum seekers, contributions to the local food bank, and support to various other charitable and relief funds, mainly abroad.
  3. Activities report
    Our AGM presented an opportunity for the church council and our church members to look back over 2023, our second year with a Chaplain. It was a year with some growth and we welcomed new members to the congregation. Social and study groups continued including our Children’s Church which in June 2024 will have been running for two years. Our Lent and Advent courses have continued online, a formula which has proven to attract more people. Our Compline services continue once a month. We are now proudly registered as an Eco Church.
