SERVICES & MUSIC

March 2015 June 2016

ELCOME TO THE ROBIN CHAPEL. Whether you come as part of a

Christian denomination or of none, all have a place within these
walls where the love of God dwells.
Every Sunday the Chaplain and Choir sing a choral service. As part of the
Chapels inter-denominational foundation we have regular visiting
preachers from across the various Christian churches, and all are most
welcome to join us in worship at the Robin Chapel.
