About this event
The Provincial Church Service will be held in The Collegiate Church of St Mary’s, Warwick on Sunday 23rd June 2024, at 2.45pm.
This is one of the major events in the Provincial calendar and the Provincial Grand Master considers every Worshipful Master, together with his Wardens and their families with other members of the Lodge, and their families, should have the pleasure of attending.
W Bro Timothy M Boyns, Provincial Grand Chaplain, will lead the service and deliver the sermon with representatives of the Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh faiths taking part. The Provincial Choir will be under the direction of W Bro Chris Grove MBE, PJGD, while the Provincial Organist, W.Bro Peter Summers PGStB will be playing the organ.
