Easter Sunday - Festal Cathedral Eucharist
Sunday 31st March, 11:00
Festal sung eucharist accompanied by Brecon String Quartet, who will be playing Haydn’s Kleine Orgelmasse
The bishop leads the Easter service, beginning with the blessing of the Easter Garden, built near the north door of the Cathedral. Priests wear white robes and receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion, which the Cathedral calls ‘Eucharist’, which means ‘Thanksgiving’. The Dean likes to give Easter eggs to children after the service. But some adults like to take one as well, even though meant for children.
