All Are Welcome!
This Cathedral believes God loves you just the way you are. If you’re a member of the LGBTQIA community and have never felt embraced by the church, there’s a home for you here.
We are a House of Prayer for All People — no exceptions.
Through sculpture and stained glass, the Cathedral's architecture tells the story of where we've been, who we are and who we aspire to be.
Elie Wiesel
A new carving of Holocaust survivor and Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel serves as an eternal reminder that God is not indifferent to suffering. He joins Rosa Parks, Mother Teresa and other icons in the Human Rights Porch.
The Cathedral is anxious to welcome you back! After too long apart, we will be open for for public worship starting July 4.
Reopening 101
The Cathedral is now open for public worship on Sundays at 11:15 a.m. During the week, we invite you to experience the magic and wonder of “Les Colombes.” Click for details about health measures we’re taking to keep you safe.
It took 83 years to build the National Cathedral, and only seconds for an act of nature to cause significant damage that still needs repair.
Earthquake Restoration
It’s been almost 10 years since a rare 5.8 magnitude earthquake rattled the National Cathedral and caused $34 million in damage. With your help, we can restore this national treasure.
COVID-19 Memorial
We welcome the names of the loved ones you have lost during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each name will be trusted to God’s embrace as we include them in a virtual prayer service in the Chapel of St. Joseph of Arimathea.
