We were honoured to host congregations from all seven churches in town today to celebrate Pentecost. Members of Churches Together in Southwell - Baptist, Catholic, Holy Trinity, Living Waters, Methodist, Riverside and Minster churches - came together in a joyful expression of faith, singing and praying with one voice and one heart. So powerful!

Please remember that the Minster - your cathedral - is always here for you, whether you have faith, feel on the fence, or have none at all. Whether you’re seeking a little peace and quiet, would like to light a candle, or simply want a friendly chat, our doors are open.

As this morning showed so powerfully, we are stronger together. ❤️
