This coming Saturday, 16th November, is our Autumn Concert at St Andrews Church, Chippenham, at 7:30pm, where we will be playing Beethoven's popular Egmont Overture, Brahms' 4th Symphony and Jacob Byrne will be playing the fantastic Shostakovich Concerto for Piano No. 2.

If only our stalls could talk... Our original 13th century oak stalls are the earliest complete set of choir stalls in England. They’ve been present for nearly 800 years of worship!

Tickets are now on sale for our Christmas Extravaganza concert at St Andrews Church 14th December. Featuring the Military Wives Choir. £10

Christ the Judge, 1447 #fraangelico #italianart

No creature, either rational or intellectual, is in itself substantially light, but participates in the one true substantial Light that shines intelligibly everywhere and in all things. — John Scotus Eriugena, Homily on the Prologue to the Gospel of St John

That the Chief Rabbi should be compelled to make such an unprecedented statement at this time ought to alert us to the deep sense of insecurity and fear felt by many British Jews:

As well as that, what a privilege to live in a country where casual passers by are so astonishingly brave. Whatever we disagree about during an election we can be united in celebrating such examples. Let those of faith thank God for the gift of such people, let all of us be glad.

A beautiful and awe inspiring prayer set by The Church of England for today that reminds us of the duties and joys of this coming Advent season.

Our #Carol service starts at 7pm. It’s always packed, so please get here early if you need a seat. Midnight mass is at 11.30. 🕯 Hoping all of our lovely followers are able to share in the joy of #Christmas this year. 😊 🕯 #midnightmass #ninelessonsandcarols #chippenham #cofe

"Perhaps Herbert is even hinting that we’ll glimpse the heaven in our midst only if we give up a few of our exclusive privileges and entitlements, and are happy to throw in our lot with “ordinary” folk" churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2019/…

Deeply saddened to report that a scuffle broke out during morning prayer. Stern words have been spoken to the culprits. Sadly both Hilda & Jesse seem totally unrepentant... #dogsoftwitter #CatsOfTwitter #TuesdayThoughts

We’ll be holding a solumn #Eucharist with the imposition of #ashes to mark the start of #lent at 7.30 tonight. #AshWednesday #chippenham #rememberthouartdust

The amazing discovery of the medieval font from St Andrew’s Church on the watching brief for carpark work and just outside the main door indicates the sanctity of ‘unwanted’ fonts and their ritual burial in consecrated ground. Gazette & Herald @SocAntiquaries @ChippMuseum BBC Wiltshire

The font has been lifted St Andrew’s Church Carefully extricated and now awaiting conservation advice. Good to see Ian Longdon from BBC Wiltshire today. Thanks! Gazette & Herald @SocAntiquaries @ChippMuseum
