The Choir of St Mary’s has been invited to sing Choral Evensong in the Chapel of Pembroke College, Cambridge on Saturday 25 March. It’s the Feast of the Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary (‘Lady Day’). Pembroke College Chapel, consecrated in 1665, was the first building by Christopher Wren, who went on to design St Paul’s Cathedral. It is still used for daily worship and as a focus for the life of the College community.
So, we’re having a benefice day out! Supporters will be very welcome to go with the Choir for the day and we’d really love to take a full coach. The Eucharist for the Feast of the Annunciation will be celebrated in St Mary’s at 10am, and afterwards we’ll leave on the coach at 10.45am. There’ll be plenty of free time in the afternoon to enjoy the sights of Cambridge – to visit the colleges, museums, churches and other attractions – and we’ll attend Evensong together at 6pm before leaving for home at 7.15pm, arriving back at St Mary’s for 8.30pm.
A seat on the coach will cost £10 for an adult, £8 for under-16s and FREE for under-10s. (This is excellent value: a train ticket would cost £17.) If you’d like to go, please sign the list in church and give your payment to the Church Office: the money must be submitted in full in advance of the day, and is non-refundable unless there’s a waiting list. Further details from the Rector, the Curate or the Director of Music.
