St Pauls Cathedral will also be hosting an event to support Mental Health Awareness week. Please see below.

Every day St Paul’s Cathedral opens a chapel dedicated to quiet prayer and contemplation, this space is free to enter and accessible via the main entrance. The Cathedral holds a four daily services in the week at 8am, 8:30am, 12:30pm and then at 5pm Evensong. Evensong is the treasure of the worship at St Paul’s. It is a service of sung Evening Prayer, taken from the Book of Common Prayer of 1662. This meditative and reflective service last for around 45 minutes, giving space to pause for a moment as the day draws to a close. Evensong also gives visitors and worshippers the opportunity to experience the incredible voices of our Cathedral choir, who perform different, specially-selected choral works as part of each service. This service is led by the choir, who sing responses, canticles, an anthem, and the psalms set for the day on our behalf, allowing us to experience the beauty of the music in this iconic setting. There are some readings from the Bible, and prayers are said for the Church, the World and ourselves. You do not have to familiar with the service – when you enter, you can pick up an easy-to-follow order of service, which will guide you through each part. Visit our guidance on attending services at St Paul’s for more information on what to expect.
