Holy Trinity South Kensington

At Holy Trinity South Kensington, we hope to support your journey of faith and your discovery of the significance of God in your life - whether you are making a first tentative step or have thought of yourself as a Christian believer for a long time. 

Our main service at 11am on Sundays (choral eucharist or choral matins) aims to offer thoughtful preaching, music that will inspire and, above all, prayerfulness – all within the context of the Book of Common Prayer, However, we are human and may not always achieve all of these things on any one day! All who worship here have an important part to play by their very presence and prayer. We want to be welcoming, but not in a way that overwhelms. Holy Trinity is a member of Inclusive Church.

On weekdays we offer a Wednesday lunchtime Eucharist (modern language) at 1.10pm together with regular Wednesday 5.30pm evensongs during term-time at which the Imperial College Chamber Choir sings. We also host a number of concerts given under the auspices of Imperial College and others. We are glad to provide, from time to time, space for events and exhibitions linking faith with science or the arts. Our proximity to major institutions of art, music and science contributes to the distinctive life of Holy Trinity.

There are at least six Sunday parish lunches a year which are very good occasions for getting to know one another better in an informal setting - and with very good food!

We are always pleased to discuss the possibility of baptism or marriage here.

Morning Prayer (known also as Matins) is one of the two daily services in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, compiled from the ancient Monastic Offices in the 16th century at the Reformation. It starts with prayers of penitence, and is followed by a Psalm, two readings (traditionally called ‘Lessons’) from Scripture, Canticles (musical settings of sacred words or texts from Scripture), the Apostles’ Creed (a brief statement of the Christian faith) and set prayers. In the Anglican tradition, we also have a Sermon, an Anthem sung by the choir, we sing hymns, and there are further prayers. Parts of the service are sung to formal settings by the choir. As one of the main Sunday Services offered at Holy Trinity, it is always followed by a shortened service of Holy Communion.

Always followed by a shortened service of Holy Communion. Not Choral during August or immediately after Christmas / Easter.
