Act justly, love mercy, walk humbly
Shortly after the destruction, the cathedral stonemason noticed that two of the charred medieval roof timbers had fallen in the shape of a cross.
He set them up in the ruins where they were later placed on an altar of rubble with the moving words ‘Father Forgive’ inscribed on the Sanctuary wall.
Another cross was fashioned from three medieval nails by a local priest. The Cross of Nails has become the symbol of Coventry’s ministry of reconciliation.
For all the Saints
The grace of God shows its full colours in the glory that is at work in all of God’s people who are called to be saints.
That grace which is at work in you, the saints of God who are in Bury.
The real and ordinary people who here and now hold in your hands the invitation to that wedding, along with those invited and called from the first days of Christianity until today, from every country in the world.
Writing the Divine
‘Writing the Divine’ was a workshop held at St Chad’s, Rochdale on Saturday 19th October 2019. It was led by author, poet and priest, Canon Rachel Mann.
The intention is to make this an ongoing Christian writing group with people from any and all denominations that have an interest in creating new Christian writing.
