SUMMARY:The Liturgy of Maundy Thursday
DESCRIPTION:On Maundy Thursday\, we remember the final meal Jesus shared with his disciples before his arrest. This is a time to reflect on love\, service and sacrifice as we prepare our hearts for the solemnity of Good Friday and the hope of the Resurrection. \nAs part of the service\, there will be the opportunity to participate in a foot-washing ceremony. This symbolic act\, for those who walked on dusty roads in open shoes\, may be best expressed these days in our washing of hands before eating. Therefore\, this year\, we are also offering the option of a hand-washing ceremony as an alternative\, drawing us into the same intimacy of the moment when Jesus knelt to wash the feet of his disciples. \nThe service will conclude with the Watch\, a time of quiet prayer and reflection\, expected to end at approximately 9:30pm. \nThis service will also be live-streamed via our YouTube channel (see below). \n \nView and follow along with the Order of Service (PDF). \nAll services are FREE to attend\, with no pre-booking required.

SUMMARY:Mothers’ Union Monthly Midday Prayers and Eucharist
DESCRIPTION:Please note: The Mothers’ Union Midday Prayers for April 2026 will take place on the second Thursday of the month\, 9 April\, instead of the usual date\, due to the Diocesan Chrism Eucharist occurring the previous week. \n2026 is a landmark anniversary year for Mothers’ Union\, the global Christian movement that has supported families and strengthened communities in the UK and around the world for 150 years. With four million members across 84 countries\, Mothers’ Union serves people of all faiths and backgrounds through practical action\, prayer\, and advocacy. \nThe Diocese of Newcastle was among the first to welcome Mothers’ Union shortly after its own founding in 1882. Emily Wilberforce\, wife of Newcastle’s first Bishop\, became the inaugural MU President. In more recent years\, MU Presidents in the diocese have also held the honorary role of Lay Canon at the Cathedral. \nMembers gather on the first Thursday of each month for Midday Prayers in St George’s Chapel at the Cathedral and are warmly invited to stay for the 12:30pm Eucharist. Before or after the service\, the group meets at Café 16 in the Cathedral refectory for fellowship and conversation. \nIf you would like to join them or find out more\, please contact the Revd Anne Marr\, Chaplain to the Mothers’ Union in Newcastle Diocese\, at chaplain@munewcastle.org.uk \n \nRead all about Mothers’ Union Newcastle’s 150th anniversary celebrations here. \n
