From the Dean, Metropolitan Cathedral, Archdiocese of Liverpool,

In response to the many voices of concern regarding the advertised UKIP ‘Walk with Jesus Rally’ we wish to make it clear that the Cathedral has not given permission for this to take place on our piazza nor have the organisers consulted the Cathedral in relation to this. We wish to make it clear that we are strongly opposed to the Cathedral being used by any organisation for partisan political activity giving the impression that this is done in our name or ‘the Christian community on Merseyside’. Our worshipping community consists of people of every nationality and we welcome all to the Church.

The Catholic Church respects the dignity of every person irrespective of their country of origin and recognises the religious freedom of people of all faiths and none. Every person is created equal by God. As Pope Leo XIV has said of meeting other people, ‘We must meet one another… This requires patience, a willingness to listen, the ability to identify with the pain of others, and the recognition that we have the same dreams and the same hopes.’

There is no place for prejudice, racism or bigotry towards others. We pray that these truths will be recognised by all.

UBUNTU HEALING CIRCLE
“At the Threshold – Clearing the Field, Tending the Flame”

This Sunday we gather at the threshold.

Winter is loosening. The light is rising. The horizon is opening before us.

Early March is a liminal space — between water and fire. Between release and renewal. Between what has been and what is becoming.

A time to clear the field.
To lay down what has grown heavy.
To simplify.
To prepare the ground with intention.

Across many traditions, this season speaks of purification and quiet courage — not through force, but through conscious tending.

What are you ready to release into the water?
What small flame are you ready to protect?
What does our collective becoming ask of us now?

Join us for an afternoon of rhythm, breath, libation, movement and shared reflection as we gather at the edge of a new season — together.

🪘 Drumming
🧘🏾 Meditation
🕯 Libation & ancestor honouring
🌿 Movement
🗣️ Talking circle

📅 Sunday 1st March
🕐 1–3pm
📍 John Archer Hall, L8

Affinity space for Black, Brown, Mixed-Race and Global Majority people.
Free / donations welcome.

Ubuntu is grassroots, ancestrally rooted, decolonial and held in collective care.

At the threshold, we do not rush.
We prepare.
We tend.
We rise — together.

As the nights draw in and the year winds down, join the Ubuntu Healing Circle – a gentle space to breathe, rest and remember that we don’t have to do this alone.

Ubuntu is a healing affinity space rooted in holistic African-Caribbean and Indigenous ancestral traditions and the spirit of “I am because we are.”

“One of the most vital ways we sustain ourselves is by building communities of resistance, places where we know we’re not alone.” – Bell Hooks

We come together in community, in resistance and in love — to remember, restore and rise as the year turns.
