  • Lent, Holy Week and Easter
    Lent, Holy Week and Easter Music of Faith, Songs of Scripture Music and song have always been at the heart of Christian faith and worship. Throughout the scriptures the community of the faithful have responded to the divine by singing and making music upon instruments of all kinds. This Lent, we will be reflecting on the music of our faith and the songs of scripture, the psalms, as a means of bringing us closer to God. We journey to the cross accompanied by songs of lament which deepen our prayer and we greet the resurrection with joyful songs of praise and thanksgiving. Here at Ely Cathedral we are offering a wide range of worship opportunities for prayer and reflection in our Lent, Holy Week and Easter Programme. We are delighted to welcome inspiring preachers, among them Malcolm Guite, Stuart Townend, Megan Daffern and Rowan Williams. We will be accompanied on our journey by our Cathedral Choirs and musicians. We hope that you will feel able to engage with the story of Christ’s passion and resurrection in many and various ways; growing in holiness and deepening their faith as we journey together through the season of Lent. ‘This is our story, this is our song’ Shrove Tuesday | 13 February | 6.30pm The Big Pancake Party and Pancake Race With live music from Ely Cathedral Octagon Singers and Ely Cathedral Community Choir. Come and enjoy the fun in our Big Pancake Race and Pancake Party where we will be raising money for the Church Urban Fund’s Food Poverty Campaign and eating away at hunger.

  • Westminster Abbey ASERVICE to CELEBRATE the 60TH ANNIVERSARY of the CORONATION of HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II
    Westminster Abbey ASERVICE TO CELEBRATE THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CORONATION OF HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II Tuesday 4th June 2013 at 11.00 am FOREWORD On 2nd June 1953, the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II followed a pattern established over the centuries since William the Conqueror was crowned in Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day 1066. Our intention in this Service of Thanksgiving is to evoke and reflect the shape of the Coronation service itself. The Queen’s entrance was marked by the Choirs’ singing Psalm 122—I was glad—set to music for the Coronation of EdwardVII by Sir Hubert Parry. The Queen’s Scholars of Westminster School exercised their historic right to exclaim Vivat Regina Elizabetha! (‘Long live Queen Elizabeth!’); so it will be today. The coronation service begins with the Recognition. The content of this part of the service is, of course, not today what it was in 1953, but the intention is similar: to recognise with thanksgiving the dutiful service offered over the past sixty years by our gracious and noble Queen, and to continue to pray God saveThe Queen. The Anointing is an act of consecration, a setting apart for royal and priestly service, through the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Ampulla from which the oil was poured rests today on the HighAltar as a reminder of that central act. St Edward’s Crown also rests today on the High Altar as a powerful symbol of the moment of Coronation. In today’s Service, a flask of Oil is carried by representatives of the people of the United Kingdom to the Sacrarium, received by theArchbishop and placed by the Dean on the High Altar.
