Requests for prayer may be made directly to the Dean's Vicar; or written in the intercessions book on the desk at the East (altar) end of the Chapel.

Common Worship and the Book of Common Prayer 1662 (& 1928) are the forms of service used.  All who usually receive the sacrament are welcome to receive it here, whether Anglican or not. Anyone who does not wish to take communion can come to the altar for a blessing. Members of College customarily wear gowns at evening services.

Discussion-Dessert-Drink 

DDD is open to all current Caians, an opportunity to eat, drink, and listen or talk about stuff that matters. Student-led discussions and topic suggestions are most welcome. Past topics have included; immigration, medical ethics, local government, the English law of murder, meaning and music, Father Ted, the point of cathedrals, serial killers, sex and gender, atheism. 

With apologies, there will be no meetings of DDD this term. Speakers and suggestions for the Lent Term are welcome.
