At Christ Church Cathedral we welcome you AND your questions. Why not join us as we explore together?

The African Sanctus is David Fanshawe’s unorthodox and celebratory rendition of the western Latin Mass, harmonised with traditional African music recorded by the composer as he travelled along the Nile. The juxtaposition of the musical forms creates a work of immediate impact and surprising unity, a powerful and energetic blend that captures the spiritual essence of music and liturgy.

The African Sanctus will be performed by the Darwin Chorale, joined by Darwin’s African Gospel Choir, on Sunday 24 October 2010 at 5.00pm.

Tickets are available from the Darwin Entertainment Centre or on 8980 3333

The stories of Jesus’ death in the gospels invite us to reflect on the meaning of suffering and death in our world. We are confronted with our own suffering and struggles and others; we are constantly reminded of the suffering in our world, the disasters and disease encountered by others. The Gospels of Mark and Luke invite us to encounter the face of God revealed to us in the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection and how that face shines upon us.”

Join us 9.30am-4.30pm this Saturday (May 1) as Michael Trainor, senior lecturer in theology from Flinders University, leads the next in the series of Seminars at Christ Church Cathedral – The Face of God in Jesus: A Fresh Look at the Passion Narratives in Luke and Mark.

Cost: $50/$35, includes morning and afternoon tea. BYO Lunch.
