SUMMARY:Sung Eucharist for Ascension Day
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we mark Ascension Day\, featuring uplifting music from the Cathedral Choir and commemorating the moment when Jesus Christ was lifted into heaven following his resurrection. \nAfter rising on Easter Day\, Jesus remained with his disciples for forty days\, teaching and preparing them for what lay ahead. On the fortieth day\, he promised that the Holy Spirit would come to them\, before being “lifted up… out of their sight.” The Ascension marks a pivotal moment in the Christian story: as Christ’s earthly ministry draws to a close\, his followers are entrusted with sharing the good news of God’s love with the world. \nImage: Featuring the Ascension Window (left)\, by Leonard C Evetts (1962-63). \nThis service will be live-streamed via our YouTube channel. \nClick here to access our current Services & Music schedule. \nAll services are free to attend\, with no pre-booking required.

SUMMARY:Sung Eucharist for the Feast of Pentecost
DESCRIPTION:The Day of Pentecost comes fifty days after Easter Day and brings the Easter season to its joyful climax. \nA major feast in the Church’s year\, Pentecost recalls the gift of the Holy Spirit to the disciples\, as told in the Acts of the Apostles. Filled with the Spirit\, they were able to proclaim the good news of God’s love in many different languages to the crowds gathered in Jerusalem. For this reason\, Pentecost is often called the “birthday” of the Church. \nImage: A carving of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove\, soaring above the Cathedral’s medieval font canopy. \nThis service will be live-streamed via our YouTube channel. \nClick here to access our current Services & Music schedule. \nAll services are free to attend\, with no pre-booking required.

SUMMARY:Confirmation Service
DESCRIPTION:Confirmation marks the point in the Christian journey at which you affirm for yourself the faith into which you have been baptised and your intention to live a life of faith. This affirmation is confirmed through prayer and the laying on of hands on the head\, by the confirming bishop\, as the Church asks God to give you power through the Holy Spirit to help you to live in the way of Jesus. \nIf you or someone you know is interested in being confirmed\, please get in touch with Ruth Hulse\, our Canon for Worship & Congregational Life\, who would be very pleased to speak with you. \nIf you haven’t been baptised\, don’t worry! Baptism can take place at the same time\, or beforehand.
