We achieve this through welcoming worshipers for daily worship in the Anglican tradition, retreats, quiet mornings and creative prayer evenings.
One of the cathedral’s most beautiful treasures is our Trinity icon, commissioned by the Dean of Christ Church in 2009. It was written — in the style of the famous Russian Iconographer, Andrei Rublev — by prolific icon writer, Georgetta Simion, who studied art at the University of Bucharest.
The icon represents an invitation to all worshipers to join us at Christ Church. It is our hope that through the rhythm of prayer and spirituality expressed in life of the cathedral, all in this place will experience the sense of God’s welcome, inviting us in and welcoming us to the table.
We welcome pilgrims to come on a journey of prayer and reflection at Christ Church Cathedral. We have a number of pilgrim guides available at the Cathedral’s welcome desk.

Each Lent, Christ Church Cathedral hosts a programme of creative reflection. There is a new theme every year but the programme generally centres on a small group of artists engaging in scriptural reflection or in different practices of prayer around the selected theme.
