Sunday Choral Evensong at 6pm

Easter 2026 - 'Projection'

Projection shapes how we see the world – on maps and screens, in markets, voices, and across nations.  Projecting onto others, ourselves, and God is also something we do all the time, often without noticing.  This series explores how we perceive, amplify, and occasionally completely misread the world, providing an opportunity to pause so that we might see a little more clearly, identifying distortions and glimpsing truth.    View the Easter Term 2026 chapel card.

Other special services this term include Ascension Anthems from the top of the Great Gate (14 May at 8.15am) and a Choral Eucharist for the Festival of Corpus Christi (4 June at 6.15pm) at which the choir will sing Mozart's Mass in B-Flat.          

The Chapel stands in First Court, at the heart of the college, as a place of worship, reflection and enquiry. It is also a focus for the college community, where all are welcome. The Chapel is open every day, for those seeking a time of quietness, or to pray.  For those who prefer a non-Christian space to pray and reflect the college also has a Multi-Faith Prayer Room near the library, to which there is 24 hour access.

Christ's College has one of the finest mixed-voice choirs in Cambridge and, during Term, the Choir enriches the worship of the Chapel by singing Evensong on Thursdays (6.30pm) and Sundays (6pm). Coming to Evensong is a wonderful way to hear the Choir, explore spirituality, and get to know a lively community of students, staff and Fellows.
