Summary

A Celebration of Welsh musical and poetric traditions for St David's Day. Fortitude - inner and outer strength, courage, resolve - is depicted on Sir John Portman's tomb as a woman warrior standing by a shattered pillar, a reference to the Biblical Samson. The Revd Dr Harriet Harris, a former chaplain of Wadham and now Principal of Ripon College Cuddesdon, will consider how fortitude is learned and lived.

This Evensong is followed by dinner in Hall for all who have signed up beforehand; see Chapel mailings for details.
