Since our last update, the Parish Office of the Metropolitan Cathedral of the Sacred Heart has moved from the Cathedral, into the ground floor of Viard House on Eccleston Hill, Thorndon. Please pop in and say hello. Our office hours are Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 10am – 4.30pm. The entrance is via the Conservatory at the northern end of the house.
Within the Cathedral, the focus is on the interior which includes repainting, reinstalling ceiling tiles, and recarpeting. The main foyer has a new kitchen installed with the hopes that this will encourage community groups to meet and gather in this space.
The photos below show Debbie Matheson (Lay Pastoral Leader), and Frank Doherty (Parish Administrator) at their office spaces, and a photo of the entrance of the Cathedral Office at Viard House.
