Christmas 2026
Welcome and wonder…
This page is under construction and will go live after Remembrancetide.
Everyone’s welcome to share in the wonder of the real Christmas at Great Malvern Priory.
We think there’s something for everyone, from the joy of Messy Church and the Gingerbread Nativity, through Carol Services, Christingles and Midnight Parish Communion to the monastic simplicity of mid week Compline and much, much more.
