Online Worship – Palm Sunday
This page has the online worship offering of St Mary’s Cathedral for Palm Sunday – 5 April 2020
The worship can be found in several videos—three that form a service and some more for members of the Young Church and their families.
The service is led by the Vice Provost, the Rev Canon Oliver Brewer-Lennon. Other voices come from members of the congregation, some of whom are self-isolating at home. The preacher is Sister Helena Barrett OSB. As access to the cathedral building restricted, this week’s worship takes the form of a house eucharist hosted by the Vice Provost from his own home.
A PDF transcript of the service can also be downloaded:
