The Revd Canon Dr Nick Brown, Precentor writes:
I am pleased to announce that from the beginning of April Canon Darren McFarland will be taking up the role of Succentor. In this role, he will support me and other members of the liturgy and music teams in the delivery of our daily round of services and in the preparation of the special services that mark out the Christian seasons and community events in the course of the year.
Darren brings experience of ministry in the varied contexts of the Church of Ireland, Scottish Episcopal Church and Church of England – and has previous experience of cathedral ministry in Dublin.
Darren’s appointment follows an open application and appointment process, which included external support at the interview stage. Darren will be licensed by the Bishop of Lincoln during the course of the 8.30am Holy Communion service on Tuesday 1 April. All are welcome to attend. There will be an opportunity to welcome Darren to the wider cathedral community at the Sung Eucharist on Sunday 6 April.
