The Now and Forever Windows are here!
in case you missed it
The Cathedral’s Now and Forever Windows capture the resilience, faith and endurance of African Americans and our nation’s struggle with the original sins of racism and slavery. Through this new addition to the Cathedral, we hope to tell a broader, more inclusive story of American history. In this House of Prayer for All People, we want to tell the stories of ALL people. Watch the dedication service, browse photos, view the behind-the-scenes documentary, share your thoughts on the new windows and more.
