Cathedral Connects

It's been a week since a bruising presidential election, and Canon Historian Jon Meacham has some words of wisdom from our history.

Today, America woke up to a new President, a new Congress and a new understanding of who we are as a nation. For some, this was a long-sought victory after years of work and organizing; for others, this seismic shift feels disorienting and disheartening.  

If you woke up this morning and aren't quite sure what to make of the seismic election results, Dean Randy Hollerith has some pastoral advice.

We've been celebrating the saints among us and those who came before, and Provost Jan Cope paid tribute to the secular saints ahead of Election Day.

Dean Randy Hollerith asks what we're asking from Jesus: Power, or healing?

The Cathedral is sad to share the news that our beloved colleague in ministry, the Very Rev. Robert Willis, Dean Emeritus of Canterbury Cathedral, passed away unexpectedly yesterday.  

Sonia Coman is the brains behind the Cathedral's digital outreach, but she's also a talented poet.

Our pal Jon Meacham got a big (and overdue) honor at the White House yesterday when he was honored with the National Humanities Medal.
