The resurrection of Jesus proclaims that our normal world-order is turned upside down.

The powerful are brought low, and Love - God's Love, in all the vulnerability and weakness displayed in Jesus' death - is shown to be the key to life instead.

God calls us by name to live in and by this love. Nothing else matters.

Stillness in the City

We’re excited to present this short documentary about the history of the Minster by local historian Catherine Warr.

You can also see Catherine’s video about our bells and the history of bellringing.
