Outreach and Mission

Outreach at the Cathedral

Mission and Outreach efforts at the Cathedral are ongoing and energetic. Our activities “off the hill” are expansive and go well beyond the generous dollars allocated in the operating budget of the Cathedral.

Parochial Entities like the Thrift House provide significant mission resources to the wider community. In addition many groups--from the different ECW guilds to the Children and Youth programs--make significant collections and contributions throughout the year.

Many of our major efforts are coordinated through the work of the Outreach committee and the Outreach Grants committee. The Outreach Grants committee primarily is responsible for allocating budgeted grant dollars through an annual funding cycle. The Outreach Committee focuses its efforts on coordination of various partnering activities.

Outreach Priorities and Opportunities

In addition to funding many non-profit organizations, it is a priority to continue increasing our parish involvement with those funded agencies. It is our strong belief that outreach is best accomplished when the funding includes an opportunity for us to grow in human relationships with one another. A mission fair, complemented by a Mission Booklet, increased the opportunities for our members to know the work of those partners and enhance our collaborations.
