Hide AdSongs such as Give me oil in my lamp, One more step along the world I go and Shine Jesus shine were sung by everyone with enthusiasm and enjoyment.
A special part of the celebration was a renewal for all members of their promises and a number of girls took their promise for the first time making it something they will never forget.
Paper chains were lifted high into the ceiling of the cathedral from the candelabra with a globe below it, symbolising the impact that Girlguiding has made to its 10million members across the world, on World Thinking Day when members think of each in over 150 countries.
Special thanks went to John Campbell, Verger of the Cathedral for his guidance.
A collection was taken for the World Thinking Day Fund which offers girls and member organisations life-changing opportunities to transform their community and their world.
