A short Eucharist for children and their families, with hymns (in non-Covid times) and a talk.

A service which begins outside with the lighting of a Paschal Candle, which is then brought into the Church. Easter hymns are sung, the Eucharist is celebrated, and afterwards there is an Easter Egg hunt.

The main service of Easter Day, a High Mass with incense, choral music, the renewal of Baptismal Vows, and the Easter Sermon.

Choral Evensong has returned to the Priory Church with choir and sermon.

Do you miss a well-sung Evensong with interesting preachers and good hymns? Do you work in or near the City of London? Evensong in the City is for you! At 7pm on Thursday night it should allow you to come straight from work and enjoy the peace and beauty of Choral Evensong in London’s oldest church.

As well as promising you well-known, singable, hymns we will also serve up bangers and mash after the service – and open the bar in the cloister!
