Cathedral Connects

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, we recall the words of Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel, whose likeness was carved into the Cathedral in 2021:

This Cathedral was built to mimic England in the 14th century ... and now's your chance to take a musical journey back in time.

The Rev. Dr. Paul Smith was a college student in 1957 when he first met a young Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and this Sunday he'll preach from the Canterbury Pulpit at the Cathedral, where Dr. King preached his last Sunday sermon, in 1968.

The best 13 minutes you’ll spend today will be listening to this week’s sermon from the Cathedral Provost, the Rev. Canon Jan Naylor Cope, where she talks about initiation ceremonies, and whether we have to be “good enough” to merit them.

It's one thing to perform a U2 song inside a Cathedral -- and it's an entirely other thing when U2 frontman is sitting right in front of you, listening. 

We always knew the Cathedral was good for your soul. Turns out it's great for getting out of an essay.
