In the aftermath of the violent terror attack on Bondi we stand in solidarity with our Jewish brothers and sisters as they celebrate Hanukkah. We hold in our hearts all who are grieving and all who are fearful and pray for justice, peace, and reconciliation.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Whether it's the intimacy of one of our chapels or a sweeping view of the entire nave from the west window, there are so many ways to enjoy the beautiful views of our blessed Cathedral.

Do you have a favourite that never gets old?
