Doudrac
Location
L’Eglise Saint Jean Baptiste in Doudrac (47210) is located on the D250 is about 5 kms west of Villereal. This congregation at Doudrac has grown to meet the needs of the growing number of English speaking people in the area in the north-east Lot-et-Garonne. The local mayor and the Abbé of Montflanquin have been very supportive, and are delighted that this lovely old church is being used on a regular basis by an ever growing congregation.
Services
Holy Communion is held every first Sunday at 11h00, and Evening Worship on every third Sunday. Church of England forms of worship are used. Also, we hold a Harvest Festival in the Autumn, as well as a Bilingual service of Christmas Carols which has become a well-received tradition. Congregations of over 30 are usual throughout the year, with numbers doubling for major festivals. All are welcome to join us!
Our congregation
Our congregation is drawn from across the north, east and central Lot et Garonne and from the southern Dordogne.
Warm Welcome at Doudrac
Doudrac is known for the warmth of its welcome. We now have a rota of ‘welcomers’ to greet worshippers as they arrive and hand out service sheets. This rota is organised by Tina Marshall, so if you are of a cheery disposition and would like to add your name please contact her on: tinamarshallcottam@gmail.com
Doudrac has a list of people who are contacted by email with news of services and events. If you would like to be added to this list please fill in a form at the church or email Tina Marshall (as above).
