How we serve

Solidarités anglicanes

Solidarités Anglicanes exists to offer financial support to individuals and families in need, whether members of the church or not, as well as to charitable organizations. This association, which complies fully with French tax laws, allows our community to contribute to these individuals and charities. It also oversees and organizes the finances for the LAC Counselling Service.

Members of LAC have been actively involved in charitable work over the years. Through Solidarités Anglicanes, the church currently gives financial assistance to l’Armée du Salut, working tirelessly to help the most needy families and individuals here in our own city.

Counselling Service

The church-based counselling service offers professional counselling in English and in French to people within and outwith the church community. The trained counsellors wish to offer hope, help, and an opportunity for self-development through acceptance, support, guidance, and a listening ear. LACCS does not charge a fee for its services but does ask for a donation of 35 euros per session (if anyone is really unable to afford the full donation, this can be discussed with the counsellor). in order to cover the costs of the service, rent and supervision. However, most of the money provides funds for Solidarités Anglicanes, the charitable arm of Trinity Church Lyon which oversees the financial aspects of LACCS.
