This week's online Sunday service is the traditional service of Nine Lessons with some favourite carols sung by Choristers of the Blackburn Cathedral Choir.
It is available to view on Sunday from 4pm via the Cathedral website and on social media then and after, including Facebook ... see links top right of the Cathedral website homepage.
This fourth Sunday of Advent service for December 20 is the latest available via the Diocese during the coronavirus outbreak.
Liturgy for the service, so you can join in with it from home, can be found here.
Our regular weekly message was from Archdeacon Mark Ireland this week. It is still available to engage with on our YouTube channel here.
Meanwhile there are a whole host of resources for Advent and Christmas now gathered together on one page of this website - resources that are local to this Diocese and also from the national church. Click here to explore them all.
Anything else useful and helpful to parishes for Advent and Christmas that we create or discover will be added to that resources page as we get it.
