A special celebration of Holy Communion with prayers for healing. This service is held on the first Tuesday of every month.
HANDEL’S SAMSON
WA’s first professional performance of Handel’s dramatic oratorio – the legendary story of Samson and Delilah – complete with top soloists and orchestra led by Shaun Lee-Chen, directed by Dr Joseph Nolan.
Delilah’s aria ‘Let the Bright Seraphim’ is an evergreen favourite and will be sung by local legend Sara Macliver. The role of Samson will be sung by Paul McMahon, and WA’s beloved mezzo Fiona Campbell will take the role of Micah.
Samson features the extraordinary St George’s Cathedral Consort and award-winning Australian baritone David Greco, who made his debut with St George’s Concert Series in 2022.
“Littered with thumping choruses and tender arias, the orchestration for Samson is unusually large, even using horns. This will be a gargantuan feast of Baroque music!” – Dr Joseph Nolan

Are you a donkey? A shepherd? Or a wiseman?
Our special Christmas service for the whole family is back again this year. A chance for the kids to dress up as their favourite nativity character (any costume is just fine). But we really love angels, shepherds, Australian animals.
All children coming need an adult with them, don’t forget. And if you’re feeling a bit poorly on the day, it’s probably best not to come.
A Family Christmas is totally aimed at kids – so noise won’t be an issue for this Christmas cracker of a service.
Don’t be a Grinch – come along and find out what Christmas is really about.
