Very sadly, the Divine Liturgy in English at 9-30 am on Sundays at the Holy Family Cathedral, Lower Church, have had to be put on hold. Until the practicalities we cannot use the Lower Church space. Hopefully this will be resolved very soon. Please keep checking in here for details.

December 2020 Update

Owing to public health restrictions on events other than Divine Worship, it has not been possible for the Society to host meetings or conduct other activities. This includes our Annual General Meeting and our annual Lecture. Not has it been possible to put together the Chrysostom review and newsletter.

We hope everyone understands.

We trust we can issue delayed publications and resume events as soon as allowed and safe to do so in 2021. The monthly Divine Liturgy in English on the second Saturday of each month at 4 pm (preceded by Great Vespers at 3pm) will resume at the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Cathedral of the Holy Family, Duke Street, London (Bond Street tube) subject to public health regulations.

In 2020, we said a sad farewell to our Secretary, Antony Chirovsky, who has moved with his family to their new home in north America, from where he will continue his academic work. We are most grateful for his optimism, advice and encouragement, and wish him and his family well for the future. Thanks to the wonders of Zoom and online communication we know, however, we will remain in contact and continue to benefit from his contribution. Thank you, Antony!
