Giving thanks for a near miss…

21st November: Evensong at Peterborough Cathedral, a service to remember the 20th anniversary of rescuing our cathedral from a potentially devastating fire. A special service of thanksgiving with wonderful music took place today, with vivid memories from those who were involved on the day. Thanks to all who fought the fire and to all who donated to help repair the damage and to those who organised this service. Peterborough Cathedral is a wonderful institution and it is numbing to think how close we came to losing it.
