welcome to our web site which has been
created to publicise the work of the Association of the
Friends of Lincoln Cathedral.
Message from our President the Right Reverend John Saxbee, Bishop of Lincoln
"The Friends of Lincoln Cathedral share with the Dean and
Chapter in caring for this wonderful building, and so help to
preserve it as a place of worship, pilgrimage and pastoral care
into the 21st Century. It is good friends who
help these ancient stones to live and speak the good news of God
to a new generation of seekers after faith and hope and
love.
Thank you for visiting this web-site. After
reading and seeing what is being achieved I hope you will join
with the Friends in securing Lincoln Cathedral for those who
come after us. They and I will be most grateful."
+John Lincoln
