SUMMARY:Sung Eucharist on Holy Cross Day
DESCRIPTION:Come and celebrate Holy Cross Day with our newly returned Cathedral Choir\, as they sing for their second week of term at Sung Eucharist. \nFor Christians\, the cross – once a brutal instrument of torture and execution – has been transformed into a sign of hope. It speaks not of defeat\, but of Christ’s life-giving sacrifice\, offering forgiveness\, redemption and the promise of eternal life. What was once a tree of death becomes for us the tree of life. \nAcross the Christian world\, this day is marked with joy and thanksgiving – quite different in tone from the solemnity of Good Friday – as we honour the holy cross and all it represents. \nThis service will also be live-streamed via our YouTube channel (see below). \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvAUUIjUaZs \n
