Social Wall - Reinstate

This looks like a fun thing to do in the central city on Saturday. And great to see wonderful support for the City Mission.

Don’t forget to pop down to the Cathedral and check out our new interactive hoardings. It’s the perfect time for an angel selfie 😊

The finished product is eye-catching and informative – it really does make people stop, and look. Love your comms work.

We created an information treasure hunt for Ao Tawhiti school students on Wednesday. They had to find the answers to questions about the Cathedral’s past and present on the new hoardings. They really loved it and so did we!

The Cathedral Choir is a much loved part of the Cathedral tradition. Do you know someone who'd like to carry the tradition on? ... See MoreSee Less

We are grateful today. We received a letter with this message: "I will not be around to see the finished Cathedral but it gives me great pleasure to make my small donation."

It brings to mind this quote: “It takes a noble person to plant a seed for a tree that will some day give shade to people they may never meet.” D Elton Trueblood ... See MoreSee Less

This is precious and such a lovely gift. Thank you.

That it is a fantastic and the most generous gift a person could give. Thank You so much❤️

That donation is worth more than mega bucks, because it has been given from the heart, with the vision that the cathedral is the heart of Christchurch.

Thank you.

How wonderful

Happy Anniversary!

1 November is the Feast of All Saints. On this day 139 years ago in 1881, the Cathedral was consecrated and services began.

Here is a photo of the Cathedral in the 1800s, before the west porch was added.

The other image shows the Concept Design for the reinstated Cathedral. The new porch will be slightly deeper to accommodate more people. It will have a skylight and the front windows will extend further towards the floor, letting in more light.

Won't it be wonderful to recognise All Saints' Day in the reinstated Cathedral, which we hope will be in 2028. ... See MoreSee Less

Will look spectacular

My fantasy: the spire and the front of the cathedral are moved forward so they can be seen the length of Colombo St like they used to be. I realise it's probably out of the question but I can dream, can't I? :-)

There is still time to book for our Heritage Festival "Tale of 3 Cathedrals" events.

2pm to 3.30pm on both Tuesday 3 and Friday 6 November, starting at Cathedral Square.

Book by emailing media@reinstate.org.nz ... See MoreSee Less
