7:30am Holy Eucharist, Rite I in Emmanuel Chapel

This is a quiet service that follows the traditional Rite I liturgy. There is no music at this service.

9am Contemporary Eucharist in Emmanuel Chapel on the first Sunday of the month between October and May

A service that uses contemporary liturgies, including those from the Iona Community, the Disciple's Prayer Book from Native Ministires, and prayerbooks from around the Anglican Communion, the Contemporary Eucharist explores news ways of worship and prayer. The Cathedral Praise Band provides fantastic music for this service.

 

10am Holy Eucharist, Rite II in the Nave

Our largest service, this Rite II worship time follows the prayerbook and includes hymns, choir anthems and sometimes special music. On feast days, incense, banners and streamers are present, making this worship extra festive.

 Palm Sunday Singers
 Members of the Cathedral Praise Band and the Cathedral Choir join the congregation to sing during the Palm Sunday 2008 procession from Longfellow Square to the Cathedral.

5:15pm Holy Eucharist, Rite II in Emmanuel Chapel

This small, intimate service is casual. Following the Rite II Eucharist service, the 5:15pm service is a time of warm worship with a feeling of being in a small, but close community.
