Cathedral Sunday

The Right Reverend William H.

The cathedral will be decorated with numerous magnificent floral arrangements created by floral ministries and parishioners across the Diocese created at a floral workshop conducted the day before. Bishop Stokes will be the Celebrant, and the Very Reverend Marshall Shelly, Dean of the Northern Convocation, will be the Preacher. In addition, the Bishop will perform Confirmation for any congregant seeking it. The lunch is free and docents will lead informal tours afterwards. All congregations are encouraged to send representatives to worship at "their second home church," and all floral ministries and interested parishioners are welcome and encouraged to participate in the free and professionally led workshop on Saturday, June 10 th . All floral materials will be provided, as will lunch. For further information on the workshop and confirmation, email Patrice D'Angelo or call the Cathedral Office at 609-392-3805, x 100.
