Christmas Day Eucharist

Christmas Morning Service from Blackburn Cathedral

A lively Christmas morning family Eucharist from Blackburn Cathedral, capturing the wonder of the Nativity journey with a liturgy of music, readings and stories, and featuring the uplifting setting of Bob Chilcott’s A Little Jazz Mass.\n\nThe cathedral choir of girls, boys and adult singers leads the congregation in familiar carols, including O Come All Ye Faithful, See Amid the Winter’s Snow, I Saw Three Ships, Ding Dong Merrily on High and Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.\n\nBroadcast live, with the congregation taking part in the readings and prayers, the story of Christmas is explored afresh by the dean of Blackburn, the Most Rev Peter Howell-Jones. The Eucharist is presided over by the bishop of Burnley, the Rt Rev Philip North, and the music directed by John Robinson, accompanied by the cathedral’s organist in residence, John Hosking.\n\nSet in the heart of Blackburn’s town centre, the modern gothic Cathedral Church of Saint Mary the Virgin with St Paul stands on a site that has been used for Christian worship for over 1,300 years.
