Today the Church remembers Lancelot Andrewes (1555ā1626) - bishop, scholar, preacher and one of the great figures of the Anglican tradition.
Andrewes lived more than 200 years before the Oxford Movement, but his emphasis on sacrament, tradition, the Early Church and the beauty of worship made him an important inspiration for those seeking to recover the Church of Englandās Catholic heritage.
That makes his place in the chancel here at St Paulās Knightsbridge particularly fitting. From its earliest days, St Paulās Knightsbridge stood at the forefront of the Oxford Movement in London.
His presence reminds us that the Catholic revival wasnāt about inventing something new, but rediscovering something much older - an inheritance of faith, worship and beauty that continues here today.
Come and stand where generations have worshipped, look around the chancel, and discover the people who shaped the tradition we continue today.
Information on all services at St Paulās Knightsbridge this weekend can be found on our website via the link in our bio. Itāll be good to see you there.
