St John’s College
Chapel Services
Easter Term & Summer Residence 2010 St John’s College Chapel
Since the early thirteenth century the site of St John’s College has had a place of Christian worship. The original Chapel, whose ruins may still be viewed in First Court, belonged to a hospital for the poor and infirm and was retained when the College was founded in 1511. Our present Chapel, built in 1869 by Sir George Gilbert Scott, continues this faithful offering of prayer with regular services enriched by the College’s outstanding choral tradition.
Members of the public are welcome at all Choral Services, printed in BOLD TYPE in this list.
Surplices are provided in the Chapel, and are worn by members of the College on Sundays, at Evensong on Saturdays, and on other holy days as marked in this list with the letter S.
Choral Evensong
Our service of Evensong follows that set down in the Church of England’s Book of Common Prayer in 1662. The service is sung by the Choir, of men and boys, who study either at the College or at the College School and may be followed on the cream cards in the stalls. The words of the psalm appointed for the day and sung by the Choir may be found in the Book of Common Prayer (usually red). Please join in singing the hymns, usually found in the green New English Hymnal.
In accordance with the spirit of the Book of Common Prayer (a portion of) the Morning Psalms are sung during the first half of term, and (a portion of) the Evening Psalms during the second half. This term our Old Testament lessons are drawn from the Wisdom writings, with selections from the Books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. Our New Testament lessons come from the Acts of the Apostles and tell the story of the Church’s infancy, beginning with the Ascension of Christ and the inspiration of the disciples with the Spirit at Pentecost and ending with St Paul’s arrival in Rome, ready to bring the Gospel message to a new world.
Our Sunday evening sermon series, ‘I Believe In…’, invites a range of exciting guest preachers to share something of their own faith journey and how their experience of life has shaped what they have come to believe. Further details are available on the Chapel website:
www.joh.cam.ac.uk/chapel_and_choir/sermons
Sung Eucharist
The service may be followed in the yellow Sung Eucharist booklets. Please join in all words marked in bold. Our readings are printed on a separate white sheet, which may be collected from the entrance to the Chapel. Hymns are found in the green hymn book in the stalls.
The Chapel is part of the Church of England, within the world-wide Anglican Communion, and welcomes all Christians who are communicant members of their own church to receive Communion with us.
