This Cathedral follows the call of the prophet Micah: Do justice; Love mercy; Walk humbly with God. With your help, we can change the world for good and serve those most in need.
Vaccine Outreach

Speakers included Dr. Anthony Fauci, Melissa Rodgers, Dr. Francis Collins, and Dr. Eliseo Pérez-Stable.
