Address by Rev. John Weir

Welcome, we are the Chaplaincy of Dubai and Sharjah with the Northern Emirates (United Arab Emirates), an ecumenical chaplaincy served by priests of the Diocese of Cyprus and the Gulf. The Church is both a holy place and part of Dubai's heritage. It is the home of a community made up of people from all over the world and who seek to make the Church a place of welcome, beauty and holiness. We hope you will be inspired to visit Holy Trinity Church and the Church looks forward to welcoming you.

The website gives you a virtual tour on the Church activities and the special responsibility to support the ministry of Bishop and the Diocese of Cyprus and the Gulf. We take care of the spiritual needs of our members, guests and residents, those who work in this great, diverse city during the day, and the thousands who pass by during the night.

We are a place of quiet prayer for the many who drop in, and a place of worship for the Anglician Community in the city and around. We volunteer to help the poor and needy in the best ways we can.

Throughtout the week, the Church Community meets here to worship. That is the heartbeat of this place, enabling it to be both a sanctuary and a powerhouse.

The site has been designed to be as "user friendly" as possible to enable you to explore the Church activities. Most of the pages will download fairly quickly, although as there are a number of photographs on the "Gallery" page, it will take a little longer before you can view it.

If you have any questions about our life or work, or if you would like to know ways in which you can join in and help us, please don't hesitate to contact me via email.
