English church services in Coutances


Former British Aerospace engineer Peter Hales found out about the Anglican church in Coutances in the Manche while on holiday in the region seven years ago.

He later received an offer he could not refuse and moved to France with his wide Pippa to become the lay reader at Christ Church in 2005, and he is now a fully ordained Anglican priest.
