2024 marks 200 years of ministry for All Souls Langham Place. Two centuries of witness to people in the heart of London, sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.

To mark the occasion we are holding a number of events over the coming months, along with a collectible souvenir to commemorate the occasion!

 

All Souls 200 Year Embroidered Decoration

£25

Commemorate two centuries of worship and witness at Langham Place, with an exquisite embroidered, cushioned zardozi hanging ornament. The front, in detailed threadwork and beads, depicts the famous 200-year-old John Nash portico and spire. On the reverse, a bright red velvet back with the words ‘All Souls Church’ hand-stitched with a metal thread. Zardozi (“zar” meaning gold and ”dozi” meaning embroidery) is an ancient Indian technique that uses elaborate hand stitched metal threadwork.

Each item is ethically produced in India by fair paid skilled artisan craft communities and homeworkers who have passed their skills down by generation.

All profits from the sale of this ornament will be used to fund outreach ministries at All Souls (e.g. carol services).

All Souls Langham Place

Join us to celebrate 200 years of gospel ministry at All Souls with our Saturday evening event, as well as special celebration services at our normal Sunday worship times.

On Saturday there will be live music performed by a jazz band, afternoon tea, and a historic exhibit in Waldegrave Hall, and to celebrate the diversity of our current church family, we invite you to bring a shareable treat from your cultural heritage. Whether it's 200-year-old Chinese century eggs, 2-year-old Brazilian guava pastes, 2-month-old British fruitcakes, or 2-minute-fresh fried Nigerian doughnuts! If you will be attending, please RSVP.

Then on Sunday we'll be holding special celebratory services for all three congregations with the All Souls Choir and Orchestra. We’d love to welcome you to All Souls to celebrate with us.
