A joyous celebration in word, music and prayer of Christ’s resurrection.
This service follows an ancient pattern of worship used by Christians for hundreds of years at evening time. Led by the clergy and the Minster choir, the service lasts about 40 minutes on a weekday and 50 minutes on a Sunday, when a sermon is preached. Evensong is an ideal way to find some peace at the end of a busy day. We look forward to welcoming you.
