Michaelmas Choral Evensong

Occurring
for 1 hour, 45 mins
Venue
St Giles in the Fields (in the West End of London)
Address
60 St Giles High Street, WC2H 8LG, United Kingdom

The Rector warmly invites you to our Michlemas Evensong followed by a fireside wine and cheese reception in the Vestry House.

Choral Evensong is one of the great treasures of the Church of England: an inheritance of Scripture, prayer and music which has shaped Anglican worship for centuries. In the midst of the noise and haste of London, it offers a chance to do nothing except listen, pray and be still.

At St Giles-in-the-Fields, we are delighted this year to have appointed ten Choral Scholars, giving gifted early career singers an opportunity to develop their craft within the musical life of one of London's historic churches. For our Michaelmas Evensong they join forces with the St Giles Evensong Choir, the only voluntary choir in central London to sing Choral Evensong every week.

Whether Evensong is already part of the rhythm of your life, or whether you have never attended before, you are most warmly invited.

St Giles in the Fields (in the West End of London)

We welcome all those wishing to find God in their lives and offer solidarity in faith, rooted in an ancient and lively tradition. At St Giles being loved by God comes before where we stand in society. Our Christian faith is open to all those who seek after truth.

We offer worship which is reverent, traditional, dignified and uplifting, all within the ethos of the Anglican tradition and drawn from the Book of Common Prayer and the Authorised Version of the Bible. Our worship draws on the richness of the Christian tradition of language and music to identify ourselves with the past generation of worshippers, to pray for the world and our local community and to look to the future with hope.
