- Portsmouth Cathedral (map)
This Sunday, Portsmouth Cathedral welcome people from across the city and diocese to attend A Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving for the Life of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
This service will be an opportunity for the people of the City and Diocese of Portsmouth to come together and express their affection and gratitude for our late Sovereign. The service will be attended by the Deputy Lord-Lieutenant, the Lord Mayor, the Leader of the City Council, as well as several other civic and community leaders.
The Bishop of Portsmouth, The Right Reverend Dr Jonathan Frost, will be preaching at the service on Sunday with the Portsmouth Cathedral Choir singing music drawn from across the nations of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. Music will include Andrew Lloyd-Webber’s ‘Pie Jesu’, as well as ‘We wait for thy loving kindness, O Lord’ by William McKie, sung at the Queen’s wedding 75 years ago.
All are welcome to attend at the Cathedral or stream online. See our worship pages for regular services, or see our service list.
