About

‘Façades’ – a new piece by Brigitte Beraha

Brigitte Beraha is a composer, vocalist and lyricist who has written a piece of music for 4 a cappella female voices. They will specifically make use of the acoustics of this church through this new body of work as a direct response to the occasion and also to the building itself, its natural acoustics and surrounding reverb. Through the music the musicians will express the dichotomy between the exterior façade of the Church – which sits quietly amongst the outside noise of the streets – and the inside of the building, where one might find beauty in the moment, and a moment of calm and solace within the acoustic space that they are in.

Featuring:
Brigitte Beraha
Lauren Kinsella
Fini Bearman
Clare Wheeler

This event is part of Enfield Creatives’ Collection.

This co curated Collection has been made possible with support from the Enfield Society and UKSP funding.

Sunday 4th October 10am service

We will be celebrating the feast day of the Patron Saint of Animals, Saint Francis of Assisi.  It’s customary that in remembrance of St. Francis of Assisi’s love for all creatures, animals are led to churches for a special ceremony called the “Blessing of the Animals.”

I invite you to bring your pet animals in to church on this day for a blessing.

Rev Julie was delighted that members of The Ark team could collect the Prestige Award of London and South East 2024 Church of the Year on Monday. They represented so many of us who are trying to make a difference in the communities and wider world.

I am delighted to share with you that St John’s has won the church of the year London and South East Prestige Award.

The London and South East Prestige Awards recognises small and medium-sized businesses that have been the best in their market over
the past year. We have been awarded the church of the year due to the 4 day a week Ark initiative.

We were nominated by local communities and organisations. The judging panel then considered areas such as service excellence,
product or service quality, innovative practices, value, and ethical or sustainable methods of working. Winners are selected based on
their ability to demonstrate their strengths in these areas The key meaning of the award is that you are very much respected and
admired, usually because of being important: a prestigious literary award.

Thank you to the volunteers, those who donate and those who seek to make a positive difference in this world which highlights that life is the best
