Carols Service
Singing Carols in Durham Cathedrals among 1000+ other students.
“She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.“ – Matthew 1:21
The CUs ‘Carols in the Cathedral’ is a highlight in the calendar for both Christians and non-Christians alike in Durham.
Every year at Christmas time, we put on a free carol service in Durham Cathedral. We have traditional carols, Bible readings, a choir and features an evangelistic talk.
After the service, attendees are invited to enjoy free mulled wine and mince pies – sourced by a mass donations by CU members – together, where people have a chance to chat with friends about the message of Christmas.

Christmas is a unique opportunity for evangelism, because many students in Durham do not have Christian friends or would not be interested in an apologetics talk, but would be attracted to the traditional festive experience of carols in the Cathedral. This gives us the chance to tell them that the good news of Christmas is the incarnation of the Son of God and point them towards other ways they can explore more about the person of Jesus Christ.
