Sing Choirs of Angels has proved an immensely popular addition to our calendar of festive services.
It is a mix of Christmas music, readings and poetry conjuring up a celebratory yet reflective atmosphere ahead of the big day.
The event takes place on Christmas Eve at 4:30pm for all those who cannot make it to Midnight Mass or who need a moment to draw breath and reflect during this busiest of times.
Admission
The service is open to all, ticketless and free to attend. Doors open at 4pm and the service lasts approximately 1 hour.
A voluntary collection will be taken after the service – without your generous support these services could not happen. Suggested donation £15 per person.
Many of our Advent events are very busy; please for early admission to the church (30 minutes before the event) to avoid disappointment.
We will hold back 125 places on a first-come, first-served basis for admission 15 minutes before the service starts for those who arrive on the day without registration.
If you need assistance with registration, please contact the office on 020 7427 0133 or email stb@stbrides.com.
Music
Our now traditional Sing Choirs of Angels service will feature music from all periods to complement the readings, from the 16th century Joseph lieber, Joseph mein – a German carol by Hieronymus Praetorius – to a setting of Balulalow for soprano duet composed last year by former St Bride's Choir member Helen Neeves.
Support St Bride's
St Bride's receives no state funding and is wholly reliant on – and deeply grateful for – the generous support of our visitors without which these Advent and Christmas services could not happen.
There will be a voluntary collection at the end of the service to support our work, musical tradition and help maintain our magnificent Wren church with a suggested donation of £15 per person.
Donations can be made by cash or contactless at church or via JustGiving.
You can also donate in advance via EventBrite if you choose to register for early admission to the service.
Do please Gift Aid your donation if you are eligible which generates an extra 25p in every £1 donated.
Additional Information
Directions to St Bride's Church and information about accessibility are available on our Visit Us page.
If you register for early admission please arrive 30 minutes before the service. Your place may need to be released to others queuing if you arrive later than this.
