Midnight Eucharist

Occurring
for 1 hour, 30 mins
Venue
Ely Cathedral
Address
Ely, CB7 4DH, United Kingdom

When peaceful silence lay over all, and the night in its swift course was half spent: down from the heavens, from the royal throne, leapt your all powerful Word.

The waiting and watching of Advent is brought to fulfilment in the deepest part of the night. Mary brings to birth the newborn infant who is also the redeemer of all creation. The midnight service hallows the turning of the night to Christmas, and honours Jesus’ birth in word and sacrament, carols and song.

The Boy Choristers and Lower Voices sing a mass by Mozart and festive carols. The Bishop of Huntingdon will preside and preach.

Safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding everyone who worships at Ely Cathedral or comes to the activities we offer.

We fully acknowledge we have a duty of care to all children and vulnerable adults who are part of our community or visit the Cathedral. In addition to implementing robust policies and guidelines, we carefully select and train paid and voluntary staff who might come into contact with these groups, using the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) if appropriate amongst other tools, to check their suitability.

We follow the advice, guidance, policy and practice of the Church of England in Promoting a Safer Church.
