Services
Evensong
On Sundays during term time Evensong is from 6-7pm and on Thursdays from 6.15-7pm.
Informal Holy Communion
Informal Holy Communion takes place on the first Sunday of term at 9.30am. The service provides an opportunity for students to meet other Christians in college. It is followed by breakfast at a local café.
Roman Catholic Mass
A Roman Catholic Mass is normally held on Friday of week 4 at 6pm.
Worship
With the exception of the Roman Catholic Mass, all services in Chapel are according to the rites of the Church of England. The main formal services take the form of Choral Evensong (Book of Common Prayer). The services are led by the Chaplain and the Choir and include sung liturgy, Bible readings, prayer, a choir anthem or motet, a hymn and, on Sundays, there is a sermon. Preachers are drawn from different Christian traditions. The sermons follow a theme which is set out on the Chapel term card. After Sunday Evensong there are drinks at the back of chapel and you are encouraged to stay and chat.
All are welcome
Everyone is welcome to attend these services: College members, their guests and non-College members all form part of our congregation. If you are unfamiliar with Christian services, you are very welcome to come along and sit quietly and enjoy the peace and opportunity for reflection. With the exception of special services such as carols services and Founder’s Day services, we don’t take a monetary collection.
Please note that we ask that face coverings are worn unless exempt.
