Connections

Hello, New Parishioners!

If you are new to the Cathedral parish, it help us to keep in touch if we have your details.  This form (link below) also lets you opt into the parish prayer directory and the Cathedral Connection enewsletter each week.  Chat to Charlene our parish administrator in the office if you want to know more.

Get involved!

Joining a new parish can be daunting (especially in a big building like the Cathedral!) but we would love to help you  feel at home, make friends, and become a valued part of our parish community and life.

  • Attend Sunday morning services in the Cathedral,  monthly Evensong (2nd Sunday at 5.00pm), and every 2nd Sunday a Eucharist service at this historic Ormond Chapel on Napier Terrace.
  • Welcome people to church (a great way to meet people), or help with the sound desk and set up if you are technically minded.
  • Use your barista skills as part of the friendly coffee crew after services (also a good way to get to know people)
  • Join in a regular Bible study or prayer group
  • Greet cruise ship visitors during summer months
  • Help to create floral arrangements or tend the community garden 
  • Read Bible readings or prayers during services.
  • Sing in the choir, or play music (piano, organ or Cathedral Strings are a regular part of services), and children can learn music being part of the Young People’s Choir
  • Get out and about with our walking group, come op-shopping, or share your crafting skills with our social Pins & Needles group.
  • Consider serving on Vestry, Finance or Property committees if you have experience to offer.
  • Chat to Charlene at the office if you would like to be involved somehow, or have an idea for something new!
