St Dunstan in the West

St Dunstan in the West St Dunstan’s is a Guild Church in the City of London, built in 1831 following the destruction of the original church, which dated from around 1070.

Anglican worship

We have a short (30 min) said Anglican Eucharist with address each Tuesday lunchtime at 12.30 pm, to which you are very welcome. Most members of our congregation work near Fleet Street and come here to worship during their working day. See posts to this page and the Calendar at http://www.achurchnearyou.com/st-dunstan-in-the-west/

Orthodox worship

On Friday evenings, at weekend

s and on feast days St Dunstan’s is used by our brothers and sisters of the Romanian Orthodox Church for their worship. The large Romanian community, led by the Very Reverend Silviu Petre Pufulete, has worshipped here since 1960; all services are in Romanian. Our mission

We are a centre of prayer for Christian Unity, with a primary focus on dialogue with the Byzantine and Oriental Orthodox Churches. We are the Diocese of London's Church for Europe. Prayer

Our Lord prayed that his disciples might be one as he and his Father were one. We pray that the unity, which is Christ’s gift to his Church, might be a reality as a sign of the ultimate coherence of all things in Christ. History

St Dunstan’s is a Grade I listed building with a wealth of history. Visitors are very welcome to look around. There is a guidebook on sale (£2.50 – please put money in the Church of England donation box near the door). Volunteers from the Friends of the City Churches are here each Tuesday 11.00 am-3.00 pm to welcome visitors and answer questions about the history of the church. Crypt project

We are launching a major renovation project to transform our crypt into a space for conferences, lectures, community work, social functions and business events. Restoration projects

We have restored our organ, built in 1834; and also the statues of Queen Elizabeth and King Lud in our churchyard with the help of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. We also have a brand new ring of 10 bells cast for the Diamond Jubilee in 2012.

On this day 1847...
In St Dunstans there is a particularly fine sculpture of a young man.
a poignant memorial to Edward James Auriol son of the rector who tragically died at the age of 17, drowning in the Rhone Geneva on 19th August 1847 This graceful sculpture created in his memory has remained in the church for nearly 180 years. It's quiet beauty and the story behind it offer a moving glimpse into the lives and losses remembered within St Dunstans.
