Services

Sundays

The main service is the 11:00 Sung Mass on Sunday. We use Common Worship, and the service is enhanced by the use of bells, incense and organ. Once a month an anthem or hymn is sung by the All Souls Singers – a group who are mixed by age, gender and race: they are always keen for others to join them.

All Souls Singers – a group mixed by age, gender and race: they are always keen for others to join them. Lay people also read the lessons, lead intercessions, do duty as welcomers/sides-people and offer refreshments at the end of services. Everyone is welcome to volunteer for any of these ministries.

The service

usually includes a Children’s Talk, children’s activities under the supervision of CRB-checked adults, and an opportunity at the end of the service for children to show what they have done and learned.

Once a month (currently 2nd Sunday but check in Latest News for details) the service is a Parade Service and involves the Church Lads’ and Church Girls’ Brigade, both young people and leaders. See our people.

Once a month (currently 1st Sunday but check in Latest News for details) there is a said celebration of the Mass with Homily in French at 18:00 in the Lady Chapel.
Une fois par mois (actuellement la 1-ere dimanche, mais veuillez vérifier Latest News) il y a une célébration de la Messe avec Homélie en français, a 18:00h dans la Chapelle de la Sainte Vierge.
This is attended by people whose first/first European language is French, by students and teachers of French, by those who just like French! and by English speaking members of All Souls who come to offer their welcome.

Weekdays
