Café Rivier: Help urgently needed.
From September onwards the Centre Mounier, where Sunday School sessions are held and we meet for coffee after the services, will become a building site, as the Dominican community carries out much-needed renovation work. Thanks to the generosity of Dr. Nick Rivier, a long-term member of our church, we will be able to use his apartment next door to the Centre Mounier on Sundays for Sunday School and coffee. A certain amount of renovation work is needed here and helpers are urgently required over the summer for a variety of jobs, particularly for painting.
If you have some spare time before the beginning of September and can help in any way, please contact

Dear church members and ACAS friends,
Just a little message to wish you an excellent summer break and a safe return to Strasbourg, if you are travelling somewhere interesting.
In this context, do remember that we need some good photos for our 2018 ACAS calendar (your own amateur photos, please no photos of children and nothing downloaded from the Internet). Every little bit helps. And it’s for a good cause!

CHURCH FINANCES: What do you know?
What was the financial state of the church over 2018?
The total income received of 53 415 Euro was not sufficient to meet the total expenses of 64 829 Euro ; thus a deficit of 11 414 Euro had to be taken out of reserves. The difference corresponds to a shortfall of nearly 250 Euro per week!
What will be the state of church finances in 2019?
That is in your hands ……… with increased commitment to regular giving being essential. Currently, over the first part of the year, we have been running a deficit of about 1200 Euro per month, even though we are not incurring exceptional expenses.
It is time for positive action to move the tide in the right direction so that the work and witness of our church community can prosper with God’s help.
