Am a Catholic, but I will always love our brothers and sisters in the Church of England. God Bless the Church.
You should attend one of our Anglican services, you will be warmly welcome
My Godfather is an Anglican Bishop and ny uncle is an Anglican vicar

It may not be a Catholic mass but this service is so magnificent. I just love the music. Very beautiful, splendid and spectacular!
PS: Gloria's rendition of the choir was so uplifting
It is a beautiful and solemn service.
Who knows, the people of China's house churches might see it. They have been featured on this channel and if they did see, it would be spiritual encouragement for them, they need that enough
I'm an Anglican since I was little....so I love this.....reminds me of many previous Christmas services. Love our Lord so much❤
Beautiful service and music.
That boy in the king costume was so cute! Especially when he look at his guardian when the vicar said “one king”
I'm Catholic. This is a beautiful church lovely altar and windows.Great to see incense used.I loved the singing
*Altar* and yes the singing is wonderful indeed!
@Adanalı 01 since the church predates the reformation it was literally a Catholic Church at one point. Different church different policy on ordination. Similar form of service. We are more alike than different. The C of E is quite tiny. Even with spreading itself around the globe to occupy it for centuries. 25 million in England versus a billion Catholics globally. Course more groups splintered from their own split. I’m grateful for the chance to see a service so I can experience it.
@Adanalı 01 yes I know they di and I dont agree with it whatsoever, I was just pointing out good bits I liked liked.I dont support the C of E what's so ever and I pray for them and all others who dont belong to the church to be converted
@@bhigdaddymark thanks for pointing out the spelling of altar.And yes very brilliant singing,I love the choirs of england
@@christophergodfrey1003
So do I and I also love and appreciate the congregations in England as they really do SING! The music in the services there are epic!
Joy to the world! What a rousing start! A full church - A joy to see
I was brought up a Catholic and never have I been so moved and touched and moved by this recorded service. I could smell the incense and hear the crinkling of the celebrants' vestments and the Vicar's moving word's of action to all Christ's children. I don't care that the celebrant was a woman, I have never seen anything more meaningful than the sight of a female celebrant at the altar. I am confident God in Heaven is accepting of this inclusion of all in his church and caretakers of his flock. I beleive women were quite active in the early Christian church, using their homes as meeting places for sharing Christian faith. I am only sorry that I, as many of us are, not able to be present in churches throughout our communities for the celebration of Christmas and Sunday worship during this pandemic. Christmas was not a celebretory as usual, it hurts to have to be away from our places of worship. God please alleviate us from the dangers of the present so we may return to worshipping you in community of faith! Thank you BBC and All Saints Church!
Beautiful homily .Thank u
.
This was absolutely wonderful. I loved all of the singing, the apparent willingness of the congregation to SING when expected to (the dream of every organist!), as an organist I loved hearing the organ and the lovely acoustics of that church. I was hoping to see the organ console and a better glimpse of the pipe facade, but thanks for the link to the information on the organ in the description. Never a bad service televised from England, never.
Mark, I watch the service at the Washington National Cathedral every week. The organ there too is wonderful, and I often wonder about the skill of the organist. It truly is an art! I love all of you! God bless!
@@christopherhereford1803
And as always from the UK, you too are kind and I hope that you all in the United Kingdom realise that we love you too and it goes well beyond Benny Hill, your accents, and your Rock and Roll bands lol albeit my cousin was fortunate enough to meet in NYC and date long distance and eventually marry a wonderful woman from London who was visiting family in NYC at the time of whom he had a friend in that family. For the last 35 years, I've enjoyed that lovely accent and could listen to her speak all day long! So the feeling is quite mutual indeed Mr. Hereford. Wishing ALL of you there a superb, successful and healthy 2020!
@TheRenaissanceman65
THAT'S what I'm referencing, the willingness of the congregations in the United Kingdom to not only stand up, but to actually sing and with absolutely wonderful enthusiasm. There are LOTS of churches here in the United States where that simply doesn't happen.
I grew up an Episcopalian and the congregations would sing in most cases but I witnessed that as a boy chorister from 1967 to 1973 and later in life as a substitute organist. The rare Catholic service I'd go to perhaps just to hear the organ and organist (like a friend), the congregation would stand there during hymns (or in their case, 'songs') like a statue in the park being soiled on by pigeons. They do sing in the Methodist Church that I currently play in though, but despite the denomination, there's no comparison between the congregations here and those of the United Kingdom.
I have a friend here from Liverpool who recognised a hymn that I played in one of my videos from school back home that they used to sing he told me.
Thanks for your reply and all of the very best to you and your family in 2020.
You can tell right away that this is an Anglican service because the congregation sings, unlike a RC service. I don't know how things are weekly in England, but in my Grace Episcopal Church in Alexandria Virginia USA this is the way it is every week with 5 services each Sunday. The church seats about 250.
What are you talking about, do you think Catholic people don't sing, also we don't have women at the altar, that church was probably Catholic until the reformation
Yes, we are quite happy to sing in Anglican churches in England. I go to a small parish church in the suburbs of a big city, there are usually about 40-60 of us, one service a Sunday. There is a choir, but we all sing - maybe not that well, but...OK.
Praise the Lord
Deus abençoe está congregação. Que a Luz do Cristo Salvador brilhe em cada coração destes filhos amados do Senhor.
Good day to you sir or madam.
Thank you Thomas! I've subscribed!
it is incredibly saddening to see such bigotry and discriminatory behaviour in the comments section(and mostly are christians themselves, hypocrites...), can one enjoy a sublime moment without everyone else bickering what's right or wrong? maybe i shouldn't have gone to the comments in the first place...
Saddening but hardly surprising that some people are more invested in whats in their priests trousers than whether they are a good priest.
It should be like this every day, shouldn't it?
Excellent music, liturgy, choreography. A wonderful celebration! If only this were representative of the CofE in general. Sadly, it is not the case.
Out of curiosity can I ask why it’s not representative? It’s just to me it seems somewhat typical (in a good way) of most Anglican High Churches.

In the Church of Ireland (Anglican) we generally don't have 'bells and smells', and replace wafers with normal 'loaf' bread
Church of England parishes are broadly "broad to high church" in liturgy, whereas due to political and historical events the Church of Ireland is more "low church" in liturgy.
@@johnking5174 Our Parish is low church, for sure. Even having a brass cross on the Communion Table sparked a virtual riot!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@gaggymott9159 Well we are full of bells and smells at our 10.30am Sunday Eucharist. However our earlier communion and Evensong is very traditional.
@@johnking5174 I think that's normal for an earlier Sunday or feria said communion without bells and smells, even in the Roman Church, they do the same: the incense and chants may not be used in a low mass
I have visited St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, but I felt it was not that low church as I was expected. Yes, they certainly don't wear chasubles or other Eucharist vestments (maybe a cope is ok?), and of course no incense, but the whole liturgy and music setting were fantastic, and the building itself was well decorated with sculptures and other ornaments. I have noticed that they generally didn't elevate the host during the consecration, but after the break of host (they did use wafers) , the priest showed people the sacrament with an elevation, but one thing was interesting, not like modern RC churches, the cathedral was using the high altar always and the celebrant was toward east.
Is there any chance of doing something similar with this year's broadcast from Oldham, please?
We would love to see it on this channel. From Australia.
bwilliams, do you recommend any particular books, papers, etc. on these topics? i guess you know that the ecusa is in a state of flux over the split. it is a damn mess, and many who do not care for the "touchy-feely" american anglican services and those who do not accept the "gay" thing are pretty much left out in the rain, so to speak. i am one of those, it seems. we would be using the 1920 prayer book, should i have authority over the messe/evensong., etc.
Why do idiots have to ruin a good video with sexist comments ???
very good choir and a very nice service. this service is very similar in acts and customs to the episcopal church usa, rite I and II. i assume this is an anglican church, not church of england?
Anglican Church = Church of England
@@florian8599 i recently viewed a british program re: the duties of the Queen and the royal family. in that program, the narrator stated, as i understood it, that anglicanism and the church of england are not the same, although they are similar. he pointed out that the sovereign is the head of the church. in the anglican tradition, the head of the church is christ. the archbishop of canterbury is similar to the presiding bishop of the episcopal church, usa. it is even more confusing, after the split of the episcopal church, usa, the american anglican church identified itself w/ the anglican communion. the episcopal church always taught me that it was a church unto itself, even though it had its roots in the anglican tradition. there seems to be a good deal of current discussion on these issues; too, there appears to be contradictions
in current teachings, as you may be aware. thank you for your information.
@@martinwright4125 Queen is the supreme governor of CoE, but not the head, her responsibility is political and secular, that means all clergies shall swear an oath of allegiance to her. The US Episcopal church was originated from Scottish episcopal church, which is a branch of Anglican communion and th earliest Anglican church independent from CoE. Anglican Church itself could be interpreted as English Church, which was almost equal to Church of England, although now it refers to those derived churches sharing similar polity, liturgy and belief as CoE.
@@martinwright4125 But I think in US, the Anglican Church could be interpreted as those conservative Anglicans, who left the Episcopal Church and started their own "continuing church" to resist the general liberalism of TEC also. The CoE is far more diverse than other Anglican churches, you can find those very conservative high churchmen, some believe in the spiritual authority of pope, liberal high churchmen, conservative and liberal evangelicals, even newly emerged Pentecostalist.
@@bwilliamleo7872 very nice of you to give the hx of these institutions. i will do some study, for i never knew that episcopal cusa derived from scotland. thank you so much for your insight of facts. much appreciated and much perspective gained.
Mayby this is anglican or kalvinis chruch ...
Not roman katholik chruch
This is an Anglican church
Yeah it's Anglican,catholics dong have women priests. And Calvin's church have a pulpit centralised
brits goes to churches?
Yes and as you can hear, they (the congregation) SING too!
YES, they do. Used to watch "Songs of Praise" for years and years.
It's a good church, I see! Even black people can attend the ceremony in the church! I've seen in America, that black people, they have their own churches!
Thankfully over here in Europe people don't care what ethnicity you are at church no one takes noticed especially in cities
@@christygodfrey1752
It’s even better here in Norway. Blacks don't go to the White’s Church. Whites don't do that either!
@@christygodfrey1752 We don't in the States either. It's literally a cultural thing based on past ignorance among Protestants and somewhat with Catholics. The Orthodox (Eastern and Oriental) never had that issue here.
What?? Crazy
@@Tsalagi978wrong. It’s because blacks have their own religious culture and are generally not Catholic
PLUTAO evangelos gino / god bless catholics on the Planet *
Why did the priest disturb a (thankfully) sleeping infant? Great homily,though. Beautiful liturgy. Robust singing immediately told me Anglican not RC.
AND...the curate,and father of the borrowed infant, is American,a Southern accent.
All foam. No beer
It’s like a catholic mass but it’s a women priest.
Strange isn't it
Just shows you it can be done
@@johnking5174 Jesus Neva appointmented women priests
All the good news none of the guilt or faux celibacy. Lawd Jesus, thank you for King Henry VIII's disagreements with the Pope. Lol
Triggered Catholics. There should be a subreddit dedicated to it. Lol
While I appreciate your positive view of Anglicanism, the important things happened after the tyrant's death. Thomas Cranmer, prime author of the Book of Common Prayer and Henry's son the boy-king Edward and his advisers, and the continental reformers and last but not least Elizabeth I had far more to do with Anglicanism. Henry, may have opened the door but he was never an Anglican as he only attended the Latin Catholic mass, the only lawful service in his time. An excommunicated Roman Catholic is still a Catholic as was his situation.
There’s a whole lot less child abuse when empowered women are in the mix.
Apostasy is still apostasy.
Well, it's not really about women being added to the priesthood because there are evil people everywhere. The protestant viewpoint is more along the lines of not letting priests get married leads to people being more likely to take out their temptations on innocent victims. In the Anglican tradition, priests can get married and have a normal family life.
Love women clergy. The way it should be.
Try for once in your life to not be such a bigot.
Lari Kipe I was not being sarcastic. Maybe you shouldn’t be so defensive.
@@ernestbowen4054 Well, sarcastic or not, loving clergy based on their gender is rather bigoted.
The parishioners of my local Anglican church had apoplexy that someone wanted to donate a simply cross for the Communion Table. Now the church wouldn't be without it. Just like female priests...they do some things better than the guys
Anti scriptural apostasy
No hint of a confession then. Modern liturgy is so weak.
There is a penitent rite at very beginning, before singing Gloria, and the general confession was lead by the deacon, apparently not as powerful as the traditional one, but the priestly absolution is very clear.
Confession and Kyrie: 4:06, Absolution: 4:52
Wonderful choir. What a pity for the female "priest"... a beautiful not valid service.
Mario Sista it is not valid for You :) but it is valid for God 😚 and You are not God; this is the different 😘
It is not valid for the Holy Scripture, and the Bible can't be changed from men. Actum est.
Mario Sista maybe it’s better that You read and study the Holy Scriptures because You don’t know them 😚
@@riflettiamoinsieme7384 Maybe you should understand that this church is not Christ's Church. Christ established ONE Church, and that is the Catholic Church! God Bless you and may Saint Thomas Aquinas Pray for you.
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on our souls. God absolve you in the name of the Father + and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen
Introduced by another grinning parson
Unfortunately, the Priest is a woman iI don’t care who likes it or doesn’t…..WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE PRIESTS
This is a Church of England service, if you want a male only one, go to the Roman Catholics
Amen
@@johnking5174 the Church of England should not fall into degeneracy
Nonsense. Women make wonderful priests.
@@canoeman621it violates the intent of the Lord. It confuses the idea of the alter Christus. This is a complete plagiarism of the Catholic Mass
The Priest is woman... Kkkkkk anglos, retorn tô Te Catholic church.
Was this in The Omen film?
Yes
