Congregation Ministries & Events Online

We will keep you updated as additional online offerings become available. You can also refer to the Cathedral calendar for an updated list of online offerings.

• Sacred Ground
  The Dean is encouraging the Cathedral Congregation to join one of two dialogue groups this winter. The first begins January 20 for 10 consecutive weeks and will be structured as a Lenten discipline and be part of Take on Lent (Wednesday evenings). It will be intense but worth it! The second group will meet bi-weekly beginning in February (day and time to be determined by the group).
  What is Sacred Ground? It is a reading and film-based dialogue series that fosters a sensitive, prayerful space for difficult but respectful and transformative dialogue on race and racism. It invites small groups to walk back through chapters of America’s history of race and racism in efforts to peel away the layers that brought us to today. Participants are invited to reflect on family histories and stories, economic class, political and regional identity as well as important narratives that shape the collective American story. We will keep our meetings to 90 minutes.
  If you are interested in signing up for Sacred Ground please contact Margaret Rawls, mrawls@cathedral.org, to be added to one of the groups. Detailed information about Sacred Ground is available at https://episcopalchurch.org/sacred-ground.
