“Cathedral people worship God using the liturgy of Anglican tradition in a contemporary way, seeking and celebrating God’s presence in music, mystery, word and sacrament.“
Service Times:
The Cathedral community worships on the plain and on the Hill – at the Cathedral, Browning Street, and at the Ormond Chapel, Napier Terrace, Hospital Hill. Please join us as we worship God in spirit and in truth at our weekly services:
