Lux Mundi Ecumenical Centre
Lux Mundi began in 1969 when Father Raymond E
Delius, Jesuit Priest and Diocesan Officer for Ecumenical Affairs, saw a need
for a Centre to allow people to find "warmth and welcome and show what they
are and have,"
In December 1973 the Lux Mundi Ecumenical
Centre opened in Calle Nueva, Fuengirola with the help of the Jesuit Order and
generous benefactors.
The Sisters of Marie Reparatrice-Sister
Mary, sister of Father Delius, now in Cadiz; Sister Anna Maria, also in Cadiz;
Sister Angela, now in Nerja, lived and worked at the Ecumenical Centre.
The centres cater for a wide range of people
and their needs on the Costa Del Sol from its main Centre in Fuengirola and in
Torre Del Mar; e.g. currently there are 120 wheelchairs on loan from Lux Mundi
in Fuengirola.
Lux Mundi Provides:
Help in contacting hospitals, medical and
dental clinics and other services.
Interpreter services
Visitors to those confined at home, help in
case of sickness, loneliness, infirmity, bereavement or other difficulties.
Lending and reference library in different
languages
Nearly new clothes, Bric-a-Brac.
All help for the many activities at Fuengirola
and Torre del Mar is voluntary. Friends and volunteers are always needed. The
centre can not function without committed people to provide their programmes.
Becoming involved in Lux Mundi can help you to
find meaning and purpose and perhaps profound change in your retirement years;
find warmth and welcome and share what you are and have.
