Welcome
Welcome to the website of the Grosvenor Chapel
The Chapel has served the parish of Mayfair since 1730, offering reverential worship with high quality music and exploratory and thoughtful preaching, in an intimate and luminous interior. We aim to help build community in Mayfair, by serving working people through the week, local residents, visiting tourists and those who come to our Sunday Eucharist or wish to be married, have their children baptised, or hold Funerals or Memorial Services here. We have an active Sunday Club for children, which runs during term time, and a Parish Church School.
We are part of the Church of England's Diocese of London but also are delighted to have people from other Christian traditions as part of our family. We have a programme of Sunday studies, events, lunches, trips and concerts throughout the year and hope that you will come and join us. We try to be an open-minded, inclusive and welcoming community of faith.Our Chapel motto is “unafraid to reason, unashamed to adore”.
As part of our local outreach, we have in the past worked in partnership with a local firm to provide a cooked meal that is served to table every week to refugees and international homeless people with no recourse to public funds (Thursday Lunch Club). We have also participated in the local cultural festival "Summer in the Square", and have helped to found and support the Mayfair Community Choir.We currently participate in the Mayfair Neighbourhood Forum.
St Augustine’s advice is important to us: “in the primary things, unity; in the secondary things, liberality; in all things, charity”. We welcome people of belief, those who are seeking faith and friendship, and those who doubt. We look forward very much to welcoming you in the near future.
