Who we are

An old parish, kept plainly.

Psalmly Hill has kept the same hours on the same corner since 1874 — morning prayer, a sung evensong, and a table anyone may come to. We are an ordinary parish: older than most of us, plainer than you might expect, and glad you are reading this.

Giving

The open hand.

Giving here is worship before it is a budget line, and it is nobody’s admission fee. The plate passes on Sunday; let it pass. If you would rather not wait for it, a single card gift takes about a minute.

Members with an account can set up something regular from inside the same window.

Where it goes

Life together

Find your people

A parish is not a programme. These are simply the places people gather during the week.

Two children playing outdoors on a bright afternoon

Children & Youth

Sunday mornings and a Wednesday supper club. Loud, and unapologetically so.

Singers seated together in a rehearsal room

Choir & Orchestra

Thursday rehearsals. Sight-reading helps; enthusiasm helps more.

Glasses set along a long table before a shared meal

Table Groups

Eight or nine people, one house, every other week. We will point you to the nearest.

Two people sitting across a table, hands resting together

Care & Recovery

Confidential, lay-led, and open to anyone — parish or not.

Beyond the parish

Further than this block

Three partnerships we have kept for more than a decade, not three we picked this year.

Charleston

A winter shelter on Cannon Street, staffed by the parish six nights a month.

Port-au-Prince

A school of 240 children. We have paid its teachers since 2009.

Iringa

A clinic and a well, shared with three other parishes in the diocese.

Come once, sit at the back, leave the moment you like. If it isn’t for you, no one will telephone.
