Christ is Risen, Alleluia!
The Cathedral looked never more beautiful than at the Easter Vigil. We celebrated the resurrection of the Lord with a packed Cathedral, and welcomed 22 new members of the Church.
However, we felt we should be in another season, singing 'See, amid the winter's snow', as the wintry weather set in.

A very Happy Easter to all at the Cathedral and to the readers of this blog.
Hope you make a full recovery very soon, Father, I'll keep you in my prayers. (No need to print this second bit!)
Where does the wonderful Paschal candle come from ?
The candle(which is a regular candle from an ecclestiaical supplier) is decorated by a member of the neo-catechumenate community. This year, the stunning imagery represents the 'harrowing of Hell', where Jesus is depicted descending into Hell to release the virtuous souls trapped there.
