Reopening for Prayer is a Success
The opening up of our Cathedral for private prayer saw them welcome 80 people in a steady stream between 10.00 am and 2.00 pm.
Bishop Nicholas and the Mayor of Salisbury were among those who visited, and the Dean was present throughout the day to welcome all those who came to pray and reflect.
The Very Revd Nicholas Papadopulos, Dean of Salisbury said:
"It’s been a joy to open the Cathedral for prayer today, to see familiar faces returning and to welcome unfamiliar faces for the first time. The Cathedral was built for prayer and it belongs to everyone; being among people coming to give thanks, to grieve, and to be still was profoundly wonderful.
"All who came respected social distancing, and an atmosphere of deep peace and prayerfulness prevailed. We look forward to welcoming all who wish to come."
