Join us for our Christmas Carol Service in Glasgow Cathedral. Free and open to all.

This year we are delighted that St Roch's Primary School are joining us - the children are looking forward to singing their favourite carols and hope you will join in. We have the very talented Prof Malcolm Sim, consultant anaesthetist on the organ.

Revd Mark Johnstone, Minister at The Cathedral will conduct the service - he is possibly the coolest, most inclusive Minister we have ever met and really makes everyone feel welcome!

Come along, soak up the atmosphere, get in the festive spirit and enjoy.

There will be a retiring collection which will be split between St Roch's Primary, The Cathedral and Friends of GRI. (QR code to donate available too)
If you would like to then feel free to wear festive attire - jumpers, santa hats, deely boppers or not. Whatever works for you!

The Cathedral can be chilly so remember to wrap up warmly.

FROM 430PM
Reception with refreshments in the FOGRI MUSEUM (please DO NOT go to The Cathedral before 515pm). The museum is on the left as you face the Cathedral and the entrance is on Cathedral Precinct, up the stairs. Accessible access to the museum is via the hospital entrance on Castle Street. We will have nosecco, soft drinks, canapes and festive nibbles and a raffle!

530-615/30PM
Christmas Carol Service, Glasgow Cathedral.
