A Cathedral for the Future
Our goal is as simple as it is audacious: renew the Cathedral to help heal the world. Our five-year, $150 million comprehensive campaign will bolster efforts across core mission areas and all aspects of Cathedral life: new resources will fuel new programs, new outreach and new ministry.
Cathedral Day
Join Dean Randy Hollerith, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde and our guest preacher, Presiding Bishop Michael Curry, as we celebrate 115 years of this Cathedral and all that has been made possible by supporters from across the country.
Please join us in person or online! There will be a special announcement you won’t want to miss.
