There are two chapels on Campus, one for the Roman Catholic Community and one for all the other Christian denominations: Anglican, Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal, United Reformed, Lutheran...and so on. We call it the Anglican and Free Church Chapel for short! As you can imagine we have a lot of fun worshipping together, and learning about each other, and challenging the prejudices different Christian denominations can have about each other. We hold services every Sunday at 11.30am, to which anyone is welcome to attend, even if you have no religious commitment and just want to find out what we get up to. Both our congregations are truly international, and our worship style draws from the different church traditions and cultures of our congregations. The University is also served by a number of other Christian groups and societies. Please click the links below to find out more.
