Directory 2004-5

Wakefield Cathedral Directory 2004-5

From the Dean:

I can hardly believe that this is the fifth edition of the Cathedral Directory. It has proved such a very useful document over the last few years and I am very pleased to commend it to you as a quick and easy guide as to who does what at the Cathedral. It reminds us again of the tremendous amount of work that is put into making the Mother Church of the diocese so effective and welcoming. This edition begins its life on the Cathedral's website. It is based on the 2003-4 text and as such will take a little while to be comprehensively updated. Kindly forward any necessary changes or omissions to the Cathedral webmaster Nigel Morgan.

n.morgan@netmatters.co.uk

Entries for the Chantry Chapel and the Westmorland Centre are already significant features of the website so they are not replicated in this on-line Directory.

Our thanks to Angela Capper for producing this excellent booklet on-line. Please pray for us all at the Cathedral as we pray for you.

George Nairn-Briggs
