Services & Music

August 2018

Welcome from the Dean

Welcome to Christ Church Cathedral, a house of learning and house of prayer, at the heart of the City of Oxford.

Christ Church is a constituent college of the University of Oxford. As well as being a College, Christ Church is the Cathedral Church of the Diocese of Oxford, which covers the counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. First established in 1525, Christ Church is one of Oxford’s largest colleges. Its name in Latin is Ædes Christi, meaning ‘house of Christ’, and the foundation is thus sometimes known as ‘The House’. As a foundation, it is unique, comprising a College, Cathedral and Choir School – and of course a world-class Cathedral Choir, with a reputation for some of the world’s finest music.

This booklet lists the music for all our services this month. You are welcome to join in the hymns – and listen to the psalms, chants and anthems – as you participate in worship with us. We hope and pray that your time here will be moving and uplifting – one of blessing and peace, and of spiritual nourishment and comfort.

St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD) wrote that ‘singing belongs to one who loves’. Our prayer – for each and every one who joins us here for worship – is that in the singing and music, you will not only hear the love of God proclaimed in the beauty of worship, but will also hear something of God’s love for each and all proclaimed to you. As the Prophet Zephaniah says: ‘The LORD your God dwells with you. God is a mighty saviour. He will rejoice over you with gladness. He will calm you with His love. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.’ (Zephaniah 3: 17)

May God bless you here at Christ Church, as you join us for worship.

The Very Revd Professor Martyn PercyDean of Christ Church

Gift AidDuring Cathedral services a collection may be taken to support the mission and maintenance of the Cathedral. If you are a UK taxpayer, you can increase the value of your contribution by putting your donation in, and completing, one of the Gift Aid envelopes provided. Please complete your name and address (including postcode). The Cathedral can then claim an additional 20% in tax from HMRC.
