​​​Coming Up at Great St Mary's​​​​:​​​​​

​​​​​​​​​​​​​Please note that there is work ongoing to make the front pews moveable (to improve access for wheelchair users, and to create more space for concerts and events).

There is no Morning Prayer on Monday 14 and Tuesday 15 September, during the Festival of Preaching. From 16 September Morning Prayer may not be livestreamed for some time, due to the building work, livestreaming will start again as soon as possible.
