Saint Hugh's Church
The Anglican church in Vence dates from
the beginning of the 20th century.Although it is a separate community,
there is a close link with Holy Trinity, Nice, which is,
in a sense, the mother church of the area.Saint Hugh, who was the son of
the Lord of Avalon in the Grenoble area,
was a Carthusan monk of the Grande Chartreuse
before becoming Prior of Witham
in the West of England.From there, he was appointed
Bishop of Lincoln in 1186.He was famous for his holiness and his courage.
The Anglican Community in Vence continues to grow and one finds there a warm welcome.
The Sunday Eucharist is at 9 a.m.
The Rector of Anglican churches in both Vence and Nice is Father Kenneth Letts;
he lives at the presbytery in Nice and can be contacted on 04.93.87.19.83.
