Evensong at St Mary’s

Evensong is described by The Guardian as ‘one of England's richest heritages – a living musical tradition that costs nothing to experience live’. Every month, we hold a service of Choral Evensong so you can appreciate this wonderful and evocative institution in the ancient surroundings of St Mary’s, Thornbury. The service has been sung regularly since the 16th Century and is based on the daily offices held in the medieval church. Music – and the choir – is at its heart, and each service taps into the rich vein of English church music composed throughout the centuries. Because of its ancient lineage, the old forms of the prayers and bible readings are used. After the introduction to the service, the choir recites the appointed Psalm which you can follow in the Prayer Book. The Lesson from the Old Testament is read and then the Choir sing the Magnificat, the song of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The New Testament Lesson is followed by the Choir singing the Nunc Dimittis, the song of Simeon. We then say together the Apostles’ Creed, and prayers are sung by a Cantor and the Choir which end with a reflective period where the Collects are read. An anthem is sung and a final hymn concludes the service, leaving you to sit for as long as you want and reflect on the day gone by. If you get a chance, do come along to this rarely held service and be steeped in history.

The Great Sally Alley Quiz

It’s very simple this one. On the second Thursday of every month we invite a different local charity to act as quizmaster and host our Sally Alley Quiz. They ask you questions, you try and answer them. The team with the most correct answers wins beer. The charity keeps all the entry fees. Everyone gets a chip butty. It’s a rare win-win-win situation, even for the losers. Teams of up to six people are allowed and the entry fee is £4 per person. The quiz starts at 8pm, but make sure to get here for 7.45pm to register your team. Any questions? Yes, loads! See you there!

Create a herbal remedy in Dr Jenner’s garden In this workshop, we’ll be exploring how people have used herbs to cure illnesses, treat wounds and ease aches and pains. We will take inspiration from historic remedies to write our own cure and then head off into our beautiful garden to gather herbs before returning to mix them in a real pestle and mortar, just as people would have done hundreds of years ago.
