Most days we are able to share our worship online but occasionally for operational or pastoral reasons we may not be able to. We publicise any changes via our social media channels and our website.
Occasional services, such as Carol Services, Confirmations, Ordinations etc may also be livestreamed.
*On Thursday evenings, when typically, we do not have a choir with us, we hold a said service of Evening Prayer including silence in the Crypt, allowing for a more intimate experience of worship that isn't always possible in the Quire. For those able to attend in person it provides an opportunity to come and worship in the most ancient part of the Cathedral, to be still in the midst of the business of life and rest in the holiness and peace of this sacred place.
Unfortunately, we are not currently able to livestream from the Crypt, but if you are not able to join us in person, we hope you will continue to join us online for our other regular and special services. We are always assessing how best we can support and engage with our online community, and as such will be keeping this new arrangement under review. We welcome and appreciate all constructive feedback and will take this into consideration as we review this change.
We greatly appreciate the continued support of both our local and global online congregations.
