WELCOME Keble Chapel Keble’s extraordinary Chapel is a living witness to the beliefs and ideals which inspired John Keble and his friends who would later found the College in his memory. The Chapel community is a diverse one, and it is a place where all are welcome. Services Services will resume this term in line with current Government guidance, and the Eucharist each Sunday will be live-streamed at 5.30pm from the Chapel’s YouTube channel. We will also upload other reflections and videos of musical interest over the course of the term. The Chaplain is still available to talk about welfare or religious matters. Keble’s Advent Carol Services are a particular highlight of Michaelmas term, and we are pleased that these will happen in person this year. The Chapel always looks magnificent by candlelight, and the Choir are in very good voice. The first carol service will be on Saturday 27 November at 3pm, and the second service will be on Sunday 28 November at 5.30pm. To ensure that Chapel does not exceed capacity, it will be necessary to book tickets at this link. Tickets will be available from 3pm this Sunday (7 November), and it will be possible to book up to two guests. Those attending will be strongly encouraged to take a Covid lateral flow test in the immediate period before the service and to wear a mask in Chapel. If you are unable to attend in person, the Sunday carol service will be live-streamed from the Chapel’s YouTube channel. The Chapel was built for the worship and glory of God, and this is still the Chapel’s primary purpose. There are services throughout the week in term time, which all are able to attend regardless of background or religious beliefs. The heart of our life together is the Eucharist on Sundays at 5.30pm. This is the central act of Christian worship, following Jesus’ command to take bread and wine, blessed, broken and shared in memory of him. There is usually a visiting preacher, and there is always a chance to grill the preacher over a drink after the service and before dinner. Our weekly services are outlined below. The services in italics are sung by the College Choir. Morning Prayer is followed by breakfast in Hall, and evening services finish in time for dinner.
