Sunday Evening Eucharist at St Nicholas, St Nicholas Circle As well as serving the regular congregation of St Nicholas, this Eucharist offers an opportunity for those who are unable to make their Communion on a Sunday morning to do so in the evening. It is celebrated every Sunday at 6.30pm, sometimes with music by the St Nicholas Singers. St Nicholas is a member of the Inclusive Church Network. Canon Barry Naylor 4 Alf Bateman It is with great sadness that we heard of the death of Alf Bateman earlier this week. Alf died at home on Easter Sunday. Alf was Head Verger at the Cathedral during the 1990s and was still a familiar face until just a few years ago as he was kind enough to cover for holidays in the verger department on many occasions. I’m sure that many will remember his helpfulness, commitment and willingness to talk. He was a regular supporter of the local Church of England Guild of Vergers meetings. His wife Betty and family invite all who wish, to attend the funeral service which will be held on Thursday 16 April at 3.00pm, at the Church of the Martyrs on Westcotes Drive, Leicester. Peter Collett Richard III Orders of Service These are now available to purchase at the shop inside the Cathedral and via the internet at www.kingrichardinleicester.com/shop. They come as a set of three, which include all the services from reinterment week. They cost £12.50 for the set and there is a £2.50 postage and packaging charge per set for them to be sent via the post. Community Committee Elections May 2015 The Community Committee exists to support the Bishop, the Dean and Chapter in offering a warm welcome and hospitality to all who visit; providing a place of community, learning, contemplation and quiet reflection. In recent years, this has also meant providing support for an increasing number of activities as well as fundraising. One way you can help the Cathedral continue to develop is in getting yourself elected to the Community Committee up to 2018 at the Annual Community Meeting after the 10.30am Eucharist on Sunday 3 May. Nomination forms are available from David Dewdney, Jane Black or one of the vergers. If you would like to talk further about the work of the Community Committee or standing for election, please contact David Dewdney on 0790 1970 557. Please note that you must be on the Cathedral Community Roll to stand for election. David Dewdney, Chair, Community Committee 5 Announcement from Canon Barry Naylor I will be reaching the age of 65 this year and have decided to retire on 30 September. I have written to the Bishop informing him of this and he has accepted. I have been Urban Canon since 2002 and have greatly enjoyed, and been fulfilled by, these years of ministry in the city centre – both blessings and challenges. Thank you for your support and friendship during these years. There will, of course, be opportunities for more to be said as the day draws closer. My final services will be at the Cathedral on Sunday 27 September. Canon Barry Naylor Hearing Loop System Our new PA system is now up and running and we are beginning to learn how to best make use of it. For those who wear a hearing aid, we now have the facility to provide sound via a loop system. As an interim measure for the next few years until a permanent loop can be installed in the floor, we are able to provide an individual loop for those who require it; in the form of a belt pack. If you require a pack please see a steward at the door who will fit you up and show you how to use it. Please don’t forget to return the unit at the end of the service. A Prayer for the Process of Choosing a New Bishop of Leicester Loving God, in whose hand we are shaped and moulded, raise up your church in this place, we pray, and all who serve the Diocese of Leicester. Anoint your people for service as you call another to be their Bishop. Pour out richly your gifts of unity and fellowship, that we may glorify your name, grow deeper in your love and see your kingdom come. Amen. 6 Cathedral Parking on Sunday We have recently reviewed the costs associated with the New Street car park that is available to members of the congregation on Sunday mornings. Unfortunately the amount collected does not cover the cost to the Cathedral and we have therefore revised the weekly payment to £3.00 per vehicle. With this in mind, we are also introducing a three month pre-paid ticket to the car park. The period will start on 1 April 2015 and run through to 30 June 2015. The cost of the pre-paid card is £30, which brings the cost of parking each Sunday down to £2.50 per vehicle. To purchase a ticket, please make your cheque payable to “Leicester Cathedral” and send to Gillian Aird, Cathedral Admin Office, St Martins House, 7 Peacock Lane, Leicester, LE1 5PZ. For those wishing to “pay on the day” there will still be a facility to do this, however at the end of June, the situation will be reviewed and a decision on the financial viability of the car park will be made.

We will therefore start our 2015 season of walks with a visit to the church of St Margaret of Antioch at Stoke Golding where, if possible, our friend Revd Hilary Surridge might be tempted to be our guide. Visit 1/15 – Saturday 18 April 2014 – St Margaret of Antioch, Stoke Golding The first visit and walk of the 2015 season for the Cathedral Walking Group will be to St Margaret of Antioch at Stoke Golding on Saturday 18 April 2015. The visit will follow our established pattern of lunch at a nearby hostelry, The George and Dragon, Station Road, Stoke Golding, CV13 6EZ arriving at 12.00pm for lunch at 12.30pm. After lunch we will visit St Margaret’s Church at 1.30pm and then enjoy a short walk lasting about one and a half hour, through the surrounding countryside. To enable the pub to provide our lunches at 12.30pm we have been asked to preselect our food from their lunchtime menu, copy available from Mick McQuade. If you would like to join the Cathedral Walking Group please note the date in your diary and book in with Mick McQuade. The programme of walks for the 2015 season is shown below.
