A little bit about us.
St. Clement’s is part of the Church of England’s Diocese in Europe (https://europe.anglican.org).
Here in the Czech Republic we are the English-speaking parish of the Old Catholic Church of the Czech Republic (Starokatolická církev v ČR), a Church duly registered with the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic as per Act No. 308/1991.
In 1932 the Convocation of Canterbury established ‘intercommunion’ between the Church of England and the Old Catholic Church, and more recently a covenant was signed in September 2000 between the Bishop in Europe and the Bishop of the Old Catholic Church of the Czech Republic (https://www.starokatolici.cz/english/t5122) whereby they (and their successors) share oversight of the Anglican Church in Prague.
The Prague Chaplaincy of St. Clement’s is also prayerfully supported by the Intercontinental Church Society (ICS) (www.ics-uk.org) and we are hosted at Klimentská 5 by the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren (Českobratrská církev evangelická; ČCE), (https://e-cirkev.cz/en/) the largest Protestant and second largest Church overall in the Czech Republic.
Members of our congregation come from many countries including Armenia, Australia, Botswana, Canada, Czech Republic, England, Germany, India, Ireland, Kenya, Nigeria, Scotland, Slovakia, South Africa, USA, and Wales. They come from as varied professions as accountants, actors, consultants, diplomats, entrepreneurs, home makers, lawyers, lecturers, managers of companies, students, teachers and translators. Above all we are all Christians and try to live our Christian faith every day. Each Sunday, even in the depths of winter, we are delighted to welcome not only short and long term residents of Prague, but also tourists and those who may be in Prague on business for meetings, projects, or international conferences.
