Torre del Mar’s Lux Mundi Ecumenical Centre isn’t just a place, it’s a warm hub for expatriates in Axarquia. Every week, tucked between Avenida Moscatel’s quiet gardens and the hum of local life, something’s going on: art groups, Spanish lessons, coffee mornings, and conversations that stretch longer than planned. November’s shaping up to be another month where community spirit takes centre stage. The Food Drive continues, an ongoing mission to help 35 local families who rely on monthly donations. Whether you drop off a packet of pasta or a few euros at reception, it all adds up. On Monday 10 November, volunteers and representatives from Caritas and Hermandad del Rocio will gather to celebrate their efforts, and figure out how to grow the project further. The week itself reads like a social calendar for the soul. Mondays are for the Monday Club, a friendly meet-up over coffee or lunch. Tuesdays, the Axarquia Business Networking crowd takes over early doors (7:30 AM sharp). Wednesdays are all about creativity (art, crochet, crafts, and chatter) while Fridays mean coffee mornings in the garden, the conversation group, and, of course, Spanish practice for anyone brave enough to tackle the subjunctive. There’s even an NA English group on Thursdays, offering support and connection for those who need it most. Lux Mundi isn’t all talk, there’s travel too. On Thursday 27 November, they’re off to Guzman Nurseries and Mijas Pueblo before a shopping stop at Miramar and Iceland in Fuengirola (€25 for friends, €28 for visitors, insurance included). Later, on 18 December, comes the much-loved trip to see Malaga’s Christmas lights. For something quieter, Friday 28 November brings the Taize Prayer for Unity at St Andres Church: reflective, gentle, and fitting for the season. It’s a reminder that Lux Mundi isn’t just about faith, it’s about people showing up for one another. The Lux Mundi Centre is located at Avda. Moscatel 1 “I”, (Jardines Viña Malága/Antigua Casa de la Viña), Torre del Mar. Opening hours are Wednesday and Friday mornings from 10 AM to 1 PM.
