Night Prayer: the Office of Compline for Easter-tide

Night Prayer: the Office of Compline for Easter-tide, live-streamed on Wednesday 21 April, but you can join in any evening in the Easter season.

Death of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh

Our parishes share the sadness of the nation at the death of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh. As you would expect, we will be holding him in our prayers together with Her Majesty the Queen and members of the Royal Family. We are being asked not to use physical books of condolence but this link will take you to the Church of England's online Book of Condolence.
