iconWorking near St Helen's

All City workers working within a 10-minute walk of St Helen's are welcome to join us midweek. We have public lunchtime talks, small groups, prayer meetings and one to one explorations of the Bible, both to support Christians and those wanting to find out more about Jesus.

Lunchtime talks at St Helen's

Our lunchtime talks are designed to be accessible to all—whether you are looking into Christianity or are a committed Christian. Many Christian City workers find it a good way of standing publicly for the gospel and an easy way to invite colleagues to hear about Jesus.

  • Tuesday: 1.10–1.40pm in person and via livestream (handout available)
  • Thursday: 12.15–12.50pm in person

If you work more than a 10-minute walk from St Helen's you may find there is a lunchtime talk nearer to you. Visit Gospel at Work for more information.
