This year has been a tough one for my family, friends, and me. God willing, I will give thanks for the grace we've received, for the gifts of one another. Happy holidays everyone.
wonderfully produced video. St Paul's has become an amazing place compared to the religious museum it was when I visited in the early 1970s. Just wonderful. THANKS for posting this..
I'd love to come there some day. Sunday High Mass (or Eucharist) and Evensong at St. Paul's--and Westminster Abbey--are right on top of my to-do list if I make it to London!
This is a wondrous sharing of the life of all those who work so tirelessly at giving others the magic and mystery of Christmas. I've watched this video at least twice and no doubt will watch again and again. Thank you BBC.
So exquisite. It might be March, but with everything going on in the world right now this is such a gorgeous balm and comfort for the spirit. Thank-you for this wonderful peep and introduction into the lovely folks who run St. Paul's. Warmth from Canada. x
I lived in London between 1997-2003, & although I'm a Catholic Christian, I regularly attended Evensong & Christmas Carol at this very Anglican cathedral. To me St Paul's represents what's best about London, England, & UK in general.
I was particularly fascinated by the part where the copes are brought out - i was a People's Warden in a very small Anglican parish in Canada 25 years ago and the parish priest earned money for the parish by making copes - I remember him using gold thread.
I had the joy of visiting St. Paul's in September. We arrived in time for Choral Evensong and it was lovely. The building is beautiful beyond description and should be a "must-do" to any visitor to London. What rather surprised me was at the end of the service. We were repeatedly told quite abruptly that the Cathedral was closed and we had to get out. To be literally chased out diminished the experience I was so looking forward to.
Given the behavior of some of the pre-Covid tourists (mostly non-churchgoers) and the need for security in today's terrorist security environment, getting the public out fast and completely is an unfortunate necessity. Yes, even if it seems rude.
Did it not occur to you the staff might want to go home? Was this video evidence enough of how hard they work. You should have arrived earlier to be able to look around and paid the entry fee. Choral evensong is just that...you don't get to look around afterwards.

@TheRenaissanceman65 "In the middle" is NOT homosexual priests and is NOT female priestesses. Anglican/Episcopal is far left these days. NOT "in the middle".
@TheRenaissanceman65 Apparently you are ignorant of the schisms going on in Episcopalian vs. Anglican churches here and in England. Stop living in Anglicanism's best of times under Henry VIII. The denomination is a complete mess.
@TheRenaissanceman65 lol. Theologically speaking, you said nothing. 1- Explain the difference between the Episcopalian church and the Anglican church in America (ACNA). The ACNA schismed from the Episcopalians and the Anglican Church of England. WHA WERE THE BIBLICAL ISSUES OVER WHICH THEY SCHISMED? 2-The Archbishop of Canterbury then threw the ACNA out of the Angland Church of England. OVER WHAT BIBLICAL ISSUES WAS THE ACNA THROWN OUT? 3- The ACNA churches and the Episcopalians have been involved in lawsuits over who owns the churches- the ACNA or the Episcopalians. WHY ARE THEY BATTLING EACH OTHER IN COURT? 4-Then justify and explain the 40+ years of child abuse at the feeder elementary and high schools of The National Cathedral(!!!) in Washington, DC which was exposed in June '19. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEDOPHILE ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE?
Exactly! I was waiting for the segment on the organist. And maybe the tuning of the organ?? Surely you tune the organ in preparation for such an event. And this preparation video leaves this out? What a colossal disappointment.
@@mannfan12 The organ at St Paul's is only tuned periodically. There is no real need for tuning before a major service unless there is something obviously wrong. Also due to very efficient heating system in St Paul's the temperature is kept at a constant level which is good news especially for the reed pipes and tongues. I agree though they could have covered the role of the organ team, not sure why they did this.
@TheRenaissanceman65 BUT... it dosen't mean they couldn't show a little bit of the organists... even just a peep at them practicing... THEY accompany EVERY hymn and almost ALL the anthems.... and there's prelude and postlude music that's EXCLUSIVELY them... this was an educational show FIRST and FOERMOST... most folks would have found it fascinating, if it was presented in such a manor...

A CHRISTMAS JOY that makes the yuletide more redeeming. Thank you, Nick Road.
A lovely program and it is nice to see that some of traditional Anglicanism survives - though Christmas Day is not the end of Christmas but the start
TheRenaissanceman65 I grew up in a low to broad church parish but detail to ritual was more important than is sadly uncommon and today
And the fact that Jesus was born in April, not December.

Half of these songs and programs I've never even heard of. I thought America and Britain had a very culturally similar Christmas, but I guess not.
It depends if you compare among Anglican denominant churches are all the same e.g. Christ Church in Canada, UK, Thailand are quite similar
my brother, I suppose that depends on the kind of church you attend.
dd I spot a woman in the adult voices of the choir?!!
Thought this would be the actual church service. Disappointed it's not.
Same here LOL
