Worship
At our 10am service, we use the traditional 1936 order of communion, which was said here each week by Donald Soper. This is a quiet, spoken order of communion, based on the Book of Common Prayer. The whole service lasts around half an hour, and includes a five-minute 'thought for the day'.
Our 11am service is rich in music, and for special occasions we have a choir. On the first and third Sunday of each month we celebrate Holy Communion. We have a reputation for thoughtful preaching linked with social action, along with a respect for liturgy and Methodist tradition. There’s usually Junior Church, including a creche. Afterwards there is a chance to chat over tea or coffee, and on the fourth Sunday of each month a church lunch.
Our 6.30pm service provides an opportunity to pause to worship as the new week starts. We’re a small group who vary in age and stage in life: some study, some work, some are unable to work, some no longer work. Some walk here, some cycle, some travel long distances (most of us have a tendency to arrive late). Some of us like to stay for a chat over a drink afterwards, while others have to rush off. You can find out more about our worship here.
A list of who is preaching and leading worship week-by-week is below, and there are more detailed descriptions of upcoming services every Friday in Hinde Street Weekly.
