  • Covid Reflections
    Covid Reflections Jessica Martin Ely Cathedral 2020 1 © Jessica Martin and Ely Cathedral, 2020 2 Because of the coronavirus, Ely Cathedral was forced to lock its doors between 18th March and 3rd July 2020. It was the first time in more than three hundred and fifty years that the cathedral had been closed to worshippers. During this strange season of isolation and anxiety, Canon Jessica Martin wrote a regular series of reflections for the cathedral website – first daily and then, as lockdown went on and on, spaced further apart. Gradually they reached beyond the Ely congregation, until they were being read as a source of comfort and spiritual inspiration as far away as Australia and Texas. ‘You spoke our thoughts,’ was one appreciative comment. Following many requests, this is the complete series of the reflections gathered into one place. 3 18 March 2020 I was going to have a stupidly busy Wednesday. Diary stuffed to the gills as usual, event in the evening. All gone. I wandered into the Cathedral – usually full of visitors, buzzing with different agendas and different groups. Today, deserted, except for a single figure removing the chairs. But the candle stands are alight with somebody’s prayers. My inbox is full of messages from our wider Cathedral community offering help for the isolated, phone support, food parcels, shopping, medication. The sense of a loving community is, if anything, stronger than it was when everyone was preoccupied with all the stuff they had to get through before the end of the day. Four hundred years ago, a poet was forced to self- isolate.
