Westminster Abbey Evensong Service

Fifteen EIL students joined Professor Berry, Professor Parsons and his wife, Kathleen, in attending the 5pm Evensong  service at Westminster Abbey (Church of England) on Saturday, June 8.  In addition to the angelic voices of the choir and spiritual readings and prayers given by worship leaders, the students were able to see the tombs of both Sir Issac Newton and James Prescott Joule as they made their way through the halls of the Abbey. Prior to the service, the students joined Professor Berry, Professor Parsons and his wife, Kathleen for tea and cakes at the Abbey's Cellarium Cafe.  Our Maître d' Salvatore took great care of us!
