ALL WELCOME
The Anglican Chaplaincy at the University of Glasgow (part of the University’s Interfaith Chaplaincy) hosts ten unmissable special services in the 2022-2023 academic year. Sung by the University of Glasgow Chapel Choir, these spellbinding events offer a feast for the eyes and the ears, connecting all who join them to ancient mystical practices of prayer. Services take place on select Tuesday evenings and last around one hour. They include readings from Holy Scripture, spiritual reflections, and beauty in music and silence. All are welcome, regardless of affiliation with any religion or the university.
