What to expect

During the service, the congregation will be invited to share in the bread and wine. If you receive communion in your own church, you are welcome to receive communion at St Paul’s. If you do not normally receive communion, you are invited to come forward and receive a blessing.

You do not have to be a practicing member of the Church of England to attend the Eucharist. If you are unfamiliar with the service, you can pick up an easy-to-follow order of service at the beginning, which will guide you through each part. Visit St Paul’s guidance on attending services at St Paul’s for more information on what to expect.
