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 Chapel is large and there is room for anyone who prefers to sit in a socially-distanced seat to do so. Face coverings remain optional.
After Sunday Evensong there are drinks at the back of the Chapel and you are encouraged to stay and chat.
If you would like to help in Chapel do come and have a chat with the Chaplain. We need people to read and have chapel clerks who assist with putting out the service books and welcoming people. Chapel clerks commit to helping on a rota and get paid for their services.
