The church is under 10 minutes walk from the Winchester railway station, about 5-7 minutes walk from Winchester bus station.

The nearest public car park, St Peter's, is across the road from the church (driving down the North Walls Rd you need to turn left at the traffic lights about half way down onto Hyde Abbey/Gordon Rd).
If you drive 100-150 metres further along the Gordon Rd you find another, cheaper car park (next to the old River Park leisure centre).

The Annunciation of Our Most Holy Lady, the Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary

Troparion (Tone 4)

Today is the beginning of our salvation, the revelation of the eternal mystery! The  Son of God becomes the Son of the Virgin as Gabriel announces the coming of Grace. Together with him let us cry to the Theotokos: “Rejoice, O Full of Grace,// the Lord is with you!”

Kontakion (Tone 8)

O victorious leader of triumphant hosts! We, your servants delivered from evil sing our grateful thanks to you, O Theotokos. As you possess invincible might set us free from every calamity so that we may sing; “Rejoice, O unwedded Bride!”
