Local Community Outreach
Here at the Cathedral, we’re all about rolling up our sleeves to be the hands and feet of Christ in the world. Across several different outreach ministries, we aim to follow Christ’s call to visit the sick, welcome the stranger, feed the hungry and clothe the naked. To get involved or to learn more about these ministries, please email us.

The Knitting ministry gathers twice a month to craft hats, scarves, mittens, socks and some larger items for area children through organizations such as Bright Beginnings and Beacon House. In 2015, members donated 190 hand-crafted items.
