St James Garlickhythe is an Anglican Parish Church serving a busy parish on the bank of the Thames in the City of London.

We are a traditional and friendly church rejoicing in the good news of the Christian faith revealed in Jesus Christ. Our services are renowned for adhering to the beauty of Book of Common Prayer, and many are accompanied by fine music. The church, known as Wren’s Lantern due to the original profusion of windows, shines today as a spiritual beacon in the heart of the City. It is remarkably unspoiled having only suffered very minor damage during the Blitz. It stands today as one of Christopher Wren’s loveliest churches.

Whether you work nearby or are visiting us in person or online, you are most welcome. Pause for a while and soak up the beauty of this historic building; a holy place of prayer, refreshment, and peace.

You will be assured of a very warm reception.
