Nineteen EIL students joined Professor Berry in attending the 11:15am Sung Eucharist service at Westminster Abbey (Church of England) on Sunday, June 18. 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. A quick look at the Coronation Chair (recently used at King Charles III's Coronation) was possible as the students exited the Abbey. After the service, the group enjoyed coffee, tea and cakes at the Café in Waterstones Bookshop near Trafalgar Square.
