Reverend Andrew’s Retirement After 40 years of faithful ministry, which started in New Zealand, members of the Anglican Church of Paphos said a very fond farewell to the Reverend Andrew Burtt as he leaves the parish to start what we hope will be a long and happy retirement . On Sunday 7th November a service of Holy Eucharist was celebrated by Archbishop Michael Lewis at the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of St. Theodore, Paphos. Some 90 people including clergy from the island and parishioners attended the service and Revd Andrew was also honoured by the presence of Orthodox Bishop George who presented him with a plaque representing St. Paul’s missionary work in Paphos. On Tuesday 9th 75 people attended a Parish Lunch at Gustoso Restaurant, Kato Paphos. Speeches were made and gifts presented to Revd Andrew showing the love and respect that his parishioners feel for him.
