The Cathedral choristers are looking for children interested in joining. While the choristers accept new members year-round, the start of the season is an ideal time to take on a new responsibility.

As we enter the last quarter of the year, I am pleased to report that the financial condition of the Cathedral remains strong. Thanks to the response of so many parishioners, our pledge collection rate is above projections and our cash flow is much improved over the recent past. Coupled with excellent participation in the 2011 Stewardship Campaign, the Cathedral has exited the summer (typically a low revenue period) in a very good position. We expect to maintain this trend, provided parishioners continue the timely payment of their pledges. |

1,075 households have pledged more than $3,300,000 for the 2011 Stewardship Campaign. We have raised the pledges we need to meet the budgeted expenses for the year! Congratulations and thanks for making this happen. This is the earliest that we have met budget in a number of years and $20,000 more than we raised in pledges for all of 2010. |

I hammer because I have a love and compassion for those compromised in any way in society. You would never think that hammering a nail, caulking windows, or splashing on some paint would bring such joy, but it does for me! The Cathedral members who volunteer with Habitat for Humanity are dedicated and compassionate. Seeing and working with a family who is realizing their dream of owning a home is like “touching” God’s grace. I feel like I am God’s hands and feet and that I am fulfilling 1 John 3:17-18. “Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.” Serving with Habitat not only gives a very deserving family a place of their own, but also gives us a place in God’s ministry.
