A Message from the Dean on the Feast of St Wulfstan: Visiting our relatives is part of family life – catching up, sharing food, exchanging presents, or checking in on health and life, even if it is some time between visits, keeping in touch is, for most of us, an important part of the family experience. The same is true – and for some people perhaps even more true – of our friends. We visit and we connect because is doing so we cherish and develop our relationships, friendships, and the community networks which means so much to us. Family or friend, what matters is not necessarily formal relationship, but a bond, a connection. So it is with those who inspire or support us, we visit, we connect, we refresh. Sunday 19 January is the feast of St Wulfstan, the 11th century bishop of Worcester who, much loved and an able, caring pastor, was also responsible for a major rebuilding of the cathedral. The crypt, begun in 1084 under his oversight, is one of the most beautiful and prayer parts of the building today. For centuries pilgrims visited his shrine, said prayers, and gave thanks and although the shrine, like so many and like that of Worcester's other holy saint, Oswald, was destroyed at the Reformation, his bones still remain here at Worcester – buried somewhere near the high altar. Visiting family and friends reconnects us with who we are, gives us identity and refreshes the spirit. This Wulfstantide come to the Cathedral and make your own pilgrimage of thanksgiving for his holy life: say a prayer, light a candle, and in this sacred place, find your place.
