Ipswich’s town and civic church, Ipswich Minster, has been chosen to host Sunday Worship, BBC Radio 4’s live Sunday morning church service.
Sunday Worship is broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and the BBC World Service with some estimates suggesting listeners of up to 1.6million people across the world, including British nationals abroad and armed forces personnel. This Sunday, 18 May, at 8.10am, a service of Choral Matins will come live from Ipswich, led by the Revd Tom Mumford, along with the church’s choir, directed by Christopher Borrett.
Revd Tom said: ‘”To be asked to host Sunday Worship is an enormous privilege. This is the second time they have chosen us in the last three years, and that is a testament to the mission and ministry we are pursuing here, not least through our choral tradition which, quite rare for a town, includes both adults and children. My hope and prayer is that people, wherever they tune in from, will experience the peace and presence of God, and hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the story of God’s love, afresh for them.”
Ipswich Minster is a parish church that is welcoming and inclusive of all, with a thriving and diverse congregation of people of all ages. The church is open for daily prayer and holds a midweek and Sunday worship including choral services of Matins, Eucharist and Evensong.
