A civic service at St Thomas, Salisbury will be taking place this Sunday (5 March at 10.15am).
Although Charter Sunday is an annual occasion celebrating community life, this year the service will mark the fifth anniversary of the 'Salisbury Incident'.
Among those present and speaking will be the Lord-Lieutenant, and representatives of public health, local authority and army and Bishop Stephen will be preaching.
Rector of St Thomas's, Canon Kelvin Inglis, said: "It was a challenging time for the city those five years ago. We faced an unprecedented threat to our well-being. Local people and professionals alike rose to the occasion magnificently. We showed the world that adversity brings out the best in us. Salisbury continues to be a beautiful and resilient city with a heart for those in need."
Bishop Stephen said: "The last five years have been challenging for everyone, in Salisbury and beyond, but we will come together this weekend to reflect on the practical and spiritual resilience people here showed, and thank God for it. We will also commit our future into God's hands, and pray for those whose lives were changed by the events of five years ago."
This Mayor and guests will depart in procession from the Guildhall at 10am, arriving at St Thomas's for the service to commence at 10.15am. All are welcome.
