Sing Choirs of Angels

from St Bride's Church, Fleet Street · host St Bride's Church, Fleet Street

Sing Choirs of Angels is a recent addition to our Advent calendar and has proved immensely popular. It takes place on Christmas Eve at 4:30pm for all those who cannot make it to Midnight Mass or for those who need a moment to draw breath and reflect in this busiest of times.
