Sunday Choral Evensong at St Peter's College

What to expect at Evensong at St Peter's

Whatever your faith background, and whatever your reason for visiting St Peter's, you are welcome at our Chapel services. The services are short, consisting mainly of choral music, scripture readings and prayers. Pamphlets with details of how you can (if you wish) participate in the congregational aspects of the service are given at the door. There is no dress code.

On Sundays during term time, preachers from different Christian traditions deliver short sermons, and refreshments are served after the service. The Sunday service begins at 6pm and lasts approximately one hour.

The Thursday service has no sermon and starts at 6.15pm, lasting approximately 45 minutes.
