Beauty, stillness and prayer at the close of Sunday
Join Litany at 5.45 pm, followed by Choral Evensong at 6.00 pm in the language of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer.
Everyone is welcome
Come through the Jeffcott Street entrance. A service booklet is provided, and you may participate quietly and follow at your own pace.
Scripture, prayer and sacred music
As Sunday draws to its close, Evensong offers a time of prayer, beauty and stillness in the presence of God. The choir leads much of the music, allowing the congregation to listen, pray and join in the worship of God.
Psalms and Scripture
Biblical psalms and readings shape the service.
Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis
The ancient songs of Mary and Simeon are sung by the choir.
Prayer, anthem and sermon
Choral responses, intercession and preaching complete the service.
Wood: Magnificat in D
This performance offers a glimpse of the musical tradition that belongs naturally within Evensong.
Come and rest in the prayer of the Church
Whether you worship regularly or are encountering Evensong for the first time, we would be very glad to welcome you.
