"Will you tarry here and watch with me?"

This year our Lent course is based on the book Tarry Awhile: Wisdom from Black Spirituality for people of faith by Selina Stone, picked as The Archbishop of Canterbury's Lent Book 2024. It's available to buy online and from the Cathedral Bookshop.

Join us on Thursday lunchtimes from 12pm - 1pm and 7pm - 8pm in the Cathedral. There is no need to sign up, you are welcome to simply arrive and join with others.

These sessions will run until 21st March and will be led by The Rev'd Rosemary Drew from St Mary’s Church in Great Dunmow for the daytime course, and the Rev'd Canon Kate Moore, associate priest at the Cathedral, in the evening.

Chelmsford Cathedral

A very warm welcome to Chelmsford Cathedral - a special place of stillness and reflection where all are welcome, whatever your faith or philosophy.

On the Cathedral’s website (chelmsfordcathedral.org.uk/) you can find out about what goes on here day by day, and how you can get involved. You can also find out about special events, including Advent and Christmas, which we warmly invite you to celebrate with us.

Whatever the reason - curiosity, a need for space and quiet, an opportunity to say thank you. Or simply coming in to light a candle for someone you care about - we are here for you.
