Laurence Magnificat joins cathedral community

Laurence Magnificat joins cathedral community

Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin, has welcomed a new member to the cathedral community. Laurence Magnificat is currently making himself at home at the cathedral and has also taken to Twitter where you will find him @ChristChurchCat

Laurence plans to provide a cat’s eye view of events and happenings at Christ Church Cathedral. He will tweet about life in the cathedral with the help of Christ Church’s organ scholar, Caroline Richards and Jonathan Bull of the IT department.

Laurence (named after St Laurence O’Toole) is living with Caroline, who has adopted him. He is just four months old but in time he will attend cathedral services and generally take part in all that cathedral life has to offer a cat.

Laurence is not the first tweeting Magnificat. Doorkins Magnificat tweets daily from Southwark Cathedral in London to a large following.

We look forward to hearing how Laurence is settling in and in particular if he plans to attend the annual Peata Dog Carol Service in December.
