Christ Church Spitalfields

I was here for work, but the sense of peace is tangible. A thriving community in an age of secularism, it fits well with the community it continues to serve. My job here takes me to places the public doesn't see, and the names of the long dead, once entombed beneath, people like you and me, together with those of children who died in infancy proves that it doesn't really matter how financially well off you are, death will still visit. When the joy of new life turns to the sorrow of loss, usually because of illness that today is easily treatable, it brings the frailty of existence (whilst elsewhere humanity tries its best to destroy life) into sharp perspective. Sitting in the gloom of a vault that once held what was left of people like you and me, attending to the maintenance of modern day necessities of safety, the shades of who were, but are no longer, remain, despite having long been removed elsewhere. Words cannot describe the serenity of this curious place. I hope mine convey the feelings I get here.

Christ Church is not only a beacon of spiritual solace during the day but also a mesmerizing spectacle under the cloak of night. Its stunning architecture comes to life with captivating lighting effects that accentuate every intricate detail, casting a magical glow that beckons visitors from near and far. As dusk descends, the church's grandeur is heightened, creating an enchanting ambiance that captivates the soul. Whether you're seeking a moment of contemplation or simply wish to admire architectural beauty illuminated against the night sky, Christ Church offers a truly transcendent experience that leaves a lasting impression on all who wander through its doors after sunset.

A really nice piece of architecture near to the main financial district of London. This is a cool spire that stands out when exploring and is a neat spot to visit.

As wedding photographers based in London, Christ Church Spitalfields has fast become one of our favourite wedding venues. What a beautiful and utterly wonderful place for our couples. So many great parts to this venue, not just for the ceremony but for groom prep and dancing. We can't wait to capture another wedding at this Church soon!

Visited before Easter, and sadly the doors were all locked. It seems to only open on a Sunday, so plan your visit carefully. Stunning from the outside is all I can say!

5/5 Stars. Pros: Jesus Christ’s spirit, the Word of God, possibility to enter into eternal life, great people. Couldn’t recommend more 🙌

I attended a beautiful Christmas carols event and although not much of a church going person I felt the reverence and beauty of my surroundings. The choir was absolutely delightful and could drown my tune deaf singing!😂😂😂😂😂 The church itself is definitely worth a visit and I would recommend to tourists or anyone for this matter!

Got stuck in Spitalfields last Sunday so couldn't get to my regular church in time so went here instead. Felt blessed 🙌 😇 🙏
