Easter Holy Communion 2020
Holy Communion for The Season of Easter The Anglican Church of St Thomas, Kefalas The Church of England | Diocese in Europe Website: http://www.theanglicanchurchincrete.co.uk Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/StThomas-Anglican-Church- Kefalas-Crete-Greece-351855875016402/ Mailing Address: Box 421 Gavalohori, 73008 Apokoronas, Crete, Greece Welcome! Welcome in the name of the Risen Christ to the Anglican Church of St Thomas the Apostle, in the village of Kefalas, on the island of Crete. We are a congregation or “chaplaincy” of the Diocese in Europe, a part of the Church of England, one of several in Greece. Through our bishops we are part of the worldwide Anglican Communion, a network of some forty autonomous churches around the world. In this congregation we are a gathering of many nationalities – mostly British, Canadian, American, and Irish, but we are also from across Europe and beyond. We normally celebrate The Lord’s Supper, which is also known as Holy Communion, Holy Eucharist, the Mass, the Breaking of the Bread, and the Holy Liturgy. In it we read scripture and reflect on it, bring our concerns to God in prayer, and celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus just as he commanded his disciples in the Last Supper. The Church of England practices an open table. All who are baptised and take communion in their home church are welcome to receive at this, the Lord’s Table. We offer both the consecrated bread and wine. One may take both, or one or the other. We respectfully ask that you do not intinct (dip) the bread in the wine, as it has been determined that this is not the most hygienic. -

Promoting sustainable production and consumption patterns: the example of olive oil LIFE08 INF/GR/000581 Report on the evaluation of the characteristics of olive oil production in Crete (Summary) Organization responsible for the action: ELGO DEMETER - Institute of Olive Tree & Subtropical Plants of Chania Scientific Coordinator of the action: Dr. I Metzidakis Chania 2011 Organization responsible: ELGO DEMETER –Directorate General of Agricultural Research, Institute of Olive Tree & Subtropical Plants of Chania Scientific Coordinator: Dr. I Metzidakis, with the cooperation of Mrs. A. Giannakaki Agrokipio, 73100 Chania Tel: +30281083434, Fax: +302821093963, Email: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION Oliviculture has always been connected to the history of Crete and apparently dates back as far as 8.000 years. It is connected to the tradition, religion, art as well as the social and economic life of the inhabitants ever since civilization started leaving its mark on the island. Today, olive orchards constitute one of the most dominant elements in the natural environment of the island, covering 65% of the farming land, and offer employment to almost the majority of its farming families. Oliviculture together with tourism make up two of the most important economic resources in Crete. It offers a significant income to the island and constitutes an interesting and cherished activity to a large part of its inhabitants. The aim of this study was to identify the problems, to come up with ways to take advantage of new possibilities-opportunities and to apply modern proposals – trends in the field of oliviculture. The main topics of this study are: • Identification and study of oliviculture systems. -
