View previous posts

On Sunday, November 8, friends and family gathered to raise a flag at Providence Hospital for Levi Curry as an organ donor. Levi was a wonderful young man, a member of our Cathedral since birth, and a student at St. John's School. In the midst of this unimaginable sorrow, Levi’s family made the generous decision to donate his organs, offering the gift of life to others.May his soul dwell with the righteous!

Sunday's Homily Excerpt -

The Church as the Body of Christ is called to be the visible extension and presence of Christ in the world today. Church is not just a place you go on Sunday mornings. It is a fellowship, a community of God’s people. Like a human body it has many different parts with different roles all working together to manifest Christ in the world. Everyone has something to offer. No one has no role. The body won’t function if everyone does not fulfill the role God has given them. If you are a new member, find your place. Take your time, but find it.” - Fr. Marc Dunaway, November 1, 2026-

"One Accord"

Excerpts from Christian writers Past and Present

“The Church is not so much an organization with mysteries, as it is a mystery with organization.The mystery of the Church consists in the very fact that together sinners become something different from what they are as individuals; this something different is the body of Christ”” Fr. John Meyendorff
