You're never too young to wonder! Wonderlings is our free children's group pre-school children from birth and their adults, which takes place on Mondays during school term-time from 10am-12pm in the Priory Room (just off the cloisters). Expect gathering time with free play, circle time with Bible-themed activities and interactive music making, story time with a thought for the day, and refreshments and a cuppa at the end. We hope that a Wonderlings session will awaken a sense of curiosity and awe in everyone, whatever their age and stage!
Join us on Monday evenings for the restful reflection of said Evening Prayer.
Said Holy Communion according to the 1662 Book of Common Prayer is held at the Cathedral every Wednesday lunchtime.
We warmly invite you to join our Lent study group hosted by our Priest Vicar, The Revd Charlie Kerr. We will be using Bishop Steven’s popular ‘Come and See’ course, which sees us engage in an open discussion prompted by a short film from the Bishop each week. The sessions will be followed by an optional opportunity to join together for 30 minutes of Contemplative Prayer at the shrine, followed by a sandwich lunch. If you are interested in coming along, please email Charlie at [email protected].
Join us at St Frideswide's shrine for 'Strong Peace' (a translation of Frideswide's name), our Lenten contemplative prayer series. We will be following a sequence of five Contemplative Practices from the Diocesan Contemplative Toolkit each week based on Ignatian spirituality and other ancient pathways of prayer: Stilling, Noticing, Dwelling, Mending and Blessing. Anyone is welcome to join us from different ages and stages of life, and with any level of interest in Christian faith. There will be an informal sandwich lunch after each session in the Priory Room. Please email [email protected] to express your interest and so that we can ensure we can be as hospitable as possible.
