Cathedral service and be part of our scratch choir
As you hopefully know the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Revd Justin Welby, will be coming to the Diocese of Gloucester over the May Bank Holiday, Friday 24 to Sunday 26 May, to join in with our mission and vision.
Scratch Choir
We are looking for singers of all ages and experience, from across our diocese, to be part of a scratch choir at the celebration diocesan Eucharist service at Gloucester Cathedral at 3pm on Sunday 26 May. It’s a very special one-off opportunity to be part of a diocesan choir. You must be able to attend a rehearsal at 1pm.
If you would like to be part of this exciting experience please sign up here – Scratch Choir for the Archbishop’s visit
Celebration service
During the service we will thank God for all the projects and places Archbishop Justin has seen and the people he has met, sing and worship, and look forward to the next season of mission and evangelism in the Diocese of Gloucester. There will be a multi-sensory play area for children and people of all ages are invited to join in with this joyful service of celebration and thankfulness.
We are also encouraging people to bring a picnic to have either before or after the service in the grounds of the Cathedral.
It would be very helpful to have expressions of interest in attending the service. We would be grateful if you could fill in this simple form below to say how many people you know will be coming from your worshipping community.
