Chapel Life
As well as choral services, the Dean hosts a variety of events, socials and discussion groups for all members of our College community.
In Lent Term, ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ students are warmly invited to join us for a series of relaxed evening conversations exploring the Christian faith. These will be at 9.00 p.m. in E3 on Tuesday 28 January, Tuesday 11 February and Tuesday 25 February. Wine and cheese will be served and we will finish at 10.00 p.m.
On the evening of Thursday 27 February, ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ undergraduate and graduate students are also invited to chase away the winter chill, and end their day with a glass of port or mug of hot chocolate in E3, 9.00–10.00 p.m.
All members of ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ are most welcome to join us for a very special private tour of the Old Library at St John's College on Thursday 6 February, meeting at Old Court Porters' Lodge at 2.00 p.m. and returning to ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ at about 3.00 p.m. Places are limited and priority will be given to current members of ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥. Please email Gabrielle Bell in the Chapel Office (gjb62) by Friday 31 January to reserve your place.
Please see the Chapel Termcard for more information.
Chapel Readers and Wardens
Many ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ students, staff and Fellows contribute to Chapel services by being part of our Readers' team. Anyone who would like to read is most welcome. It is a great opportunity to become more involved in College life, to get to know the Bible, and to develop confidence.
We also have a thriving group of Chapel Wardens. These are ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ students who help to organise services, light candles, and welcome people to Chapel. The Wardens meet each Tuesday for lunch in E3 to plan the week ahead, and to enjoy fellowship together.
If you are interested in becoming a Chapel Reader or Warden, please contact the Dean.
Exploring Faith
Any ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ members considering the possibility of Baptism or Confirmation, or who would simply appreciate talking through questions of faith, are warmly invited to contact the Dean.
Welfare support
The Dean is a point of welfare support and encouragement for all members of ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥, of any faith or none. You can speak to him confidentially on any matters of interest or concern.
