Maundy Thursday Service at Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford

This year the annual Royal Maundy Service was held for the first time at Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford. The Queen was joined by the Duke of Edinburgh in to distribute the coins in a tradition which dates back hundreds of years. Eighty seven men and 87 women, to mark the Queen's 87th year, were given two purses of money, one red and one white. The red purse contained a £5 coin and a 50p coin commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Queen's coronation in 1953. The white purse held the famous Maundy money, silver one, two, three and four penny pieces equal to 87 pence. The recipients were nominated by clergy throughout the diocese of Oxford in recognition of their service to the church and community. Joy Smith from our congregation is pictured here with the two Maundy purses she received from Her Majesty the Queen.
