Christian perspectives on General Election issues (A series of lectures)
A series of lectures from speakers across the churches of Salisbury, during Lent 2024.
The Cathedral is delighted to host an ecumenical Lent Lecture programme with speakers from across the churches of Salisbury. Together we aim to reflect on big themes that will dominate UK news as we head towards a General Election and which voters will be considering as they go to the ballot box. We will not be expressing party political preferences but hope to shine the wisdom of Scripture and our diverse traditions onto cutting edge topics.
Monday evenings during Lent, held at Salisbury Cathedral.
19.30 – 21:00pm, to include a talk, Q&A, and a concluding service of Compline.
Entry is free and no booking is required. All are welcome.
