Temple Church Easter Term Some special highlights and dates for your diary We are gradually re-opening! For the first few weeks after Easter we will – thanks to distancing and some building-works – have to keep numbers in Church itself very low; we greatly look forward to welcoming ever more members back as we return to normal. Meanwhile, we are streaming all our services and organ recitals, and will continue to do so into the future. Access to all our services and recitals is via our homepage, www.templechurch.com. Do join us online when you can.
We are holding a choral service every Wednesday at 6pm during term-time.
