The new Michaelmas Chapel Termcard is out!

Check it out online, or pick up your copy at the Chapel entrance or the Porters' Lodge, to see what services and events are coming up this term.

Regular services begin on Sunday 4th October, with our 10am Eucharist and brunch, and 6pm Choral Evensong and Address - followed this week by a hot supper in Hall.

Sunday Evensong addresses this term are themed 'Imagining the World', exploring imaginative and imaginary renderings of the world, in literature, film, myth, and politics, asking how they might expose the concerns and possibilities of the world we inhabit.
