The ESCM serves all Catholics who speak English, live in Canton Zurich, and wish to pray and receive the Sacraments in the English language.
Thank you for visiting with us – whether in the church itself or on our web site.
We hope you have enjoyed your visit and that you will join us again soon.
Collections in February 2019
2nd + 3rd – These collections are forthe work and needs of our own Mission community - www.englishmission.ch
9th + 10th – For the Camillians, Ministers of the Infirm, in Georgia. Their project is to build the "Gran Talitha Kum" Rehabilitation Centre in the city of Akhaltzikhe, in the Samtskhe-Javakheti region. The decision to build this new centre here, where there is a lack of rehabilitation services, is strategic because of the catchment area, which would include patients from Southern Georgia and Northern Armenia.   http://www.camilliani.org/en/newsletter-n-26-the-world-of-the-camillians-seen-frome-rome-and-rome-seen-from-the-world/
