Trafalgar Day at St Paul’s Cathedral

On 21 October, Fr Jim had the great privilege of helping to lead the prayers at the annual Trafalgar Day Commemoration at the tomb of Lord Nelson in St Paul’s Cathedral. This is a unique and deeply moving occasion, bringing together the traditions of the Royal Navy and the Sea Cadets to remember Admiral Lord Nelson and those who served alongside him. The service, supported by the Sea Cadets, provides an opportunity not only to honour the courage and sacrifice of those who have gone before us, but also to reflect on the continuing values of service, duty and leadership. It was a particular privilege for Fr Jim to take part in this historic commemoration in such a significant setting.
