Nordre Kirke
Nordre Kirke stod færdig som kapel til indvielse den 15. maj 1923 og blev indviet af stiftsprovst Johan Chr. Kall.
Den lille kirke ligger i den nordlige ende af Nykøbing Falster, og får ikke så meget opmærksomhed, så derfor skal den da have sin egen cache.
Kirken er åben for offentligheden fra maj til september fra kl. 10 – 17 og fra oktober til april fra kl. 10-16.
Så hvis du logger denne cache inden for disse tidsrum, så giv dig tid til at gå en tur ind i kirken, og se dig lidt omkring, døren er åben. Læg mærke til kirkens enkelhed, solen på prædikestolen og måske er konfirmandernes alterbillede, lavet sammen med en lokal kunster, at finde bag korset. Der laves et nyt alter hvert år.
Sognepræst Lill Arendt Hemmingsen er tilknyttet Nordre kirke og har ud over søndagens gudstjenester bl.a. dåb, begravelser. Læg mærke til dåbstræet ved prædikestolen.
Hver onsdag morgen året rundt er der en kort morgenstund med sang og fordybelse
Historie:
Nordre Kirke begyndte som et begravelseskapel, men efter få år viste det sig, at der var behov for også at afholde gudstjenester. Derfor søgte man Kirkeministeriet om tilladelse til at opsætte prædikestol, alterbord og døbefont for at fejre højmesse om søndagen. Det fik man lov til.
I 1993 blev kirken endeligt indviet efter en omfattende renovering, som kunstneren Erik Mortensen og billedhuggeren Ove Bang Jørgensen stod for.
De skiftede alt inventaret, bortset fra stolene, ud: Man fik ny prædikestol, døbefont, alterbord, alterkors, knæfald, nye kandelabre og lysekroner, samt et helt nyt klinkegulv. Samtidig fik man af kirkeministeriet lov til at indvie kapellet som Kirke, og derfor kaldes det i dag Nordre Kirke.
English:
Nordre Kirke was completed as a chapel for inauguration on 15th of May 1923 and was inaugurated by diocesan provost Johan Chr. Call.
The small church is located in the northern part of Nykøbing Falster, and deserves more attention, so therefore it should have its own cache.
The church is open to the public from May to September from 10 - 17 and from October to April from kl. 10-16.
So if you log this cache within these time periods, give yourself time to take a little look around inside the church, the door is open. Notice the simplicity of the church, the sun reflecting on the pulpit and perhaps the altarpiece of the confirmands, made in collaboration with a local artist, it can be found behind the cross. The confirmands create a new altar every year.
Parish priest Lill Arendt Hemmingsen is affiliated with Nordre kirke and in addition to Sunday services, she also performs baptisms and funerals. Notice the baptismal font at the pulpit.
Every Wednesday morning all year round there is a short service with time for singing, and reflections
History:
Nordre Kirke started as a funeral chapel, but after a few years there was a need for hosting Sunday services as well. Therefore the church applied for permission to set up a pulpit, altar table and baptismal font from the ministry of church affairs I order to celebrate Mass on Sundays. The application was granted.
In 1993, the church was finally inaugurated after an extensive renovation, which was done by the artist Erik Mortensen and the sculptor Ove Bang Jørgensen.
They replaced all the furniture, except the chairs: they got a new pulpit, baptismal font, altar table, altar cross, kneelingbench, new candelabras and chandeliers, and a brand new tiled floor. When the renovation was finished, the Ministry of Church Affairs granted permission for the chapel to be inaugurated as a Church, and therefore it is today called “Nordre kirke”.
