CATHEDRAL DAY!

April 27

Cathedral Day 2024 is Saturday, April 27!


Cathedral Day is a “family reunion” for Episcopalians from across western Washington. It’s a time for connecting across congregations and experiencing all your cathedral has to offer.

This year’s Cathedral Day celebrates the idea of pilgrimage, with Saint Mark’s serving as your sacred destination.

Our Christian tradition holds dear the spiritual practice of making pilgrimages that profoundly shape our understanding of what it means to follow Christ. One need not travel across the globe to do so; one need only be open to the holy experience of discovering God anew on the way.

For centuries, cathedrals have served as Christian pilgrimage sites, drawing people of faith into the orbit of wonder and awe. This year, for Cathedral Day in the Diocese of Olympia, all are encouraged to consider the day’s journey as a pilgrimage to your cathedral.

As Jesus said to the first ones to follow him as people of The Way: “Come and see…” so are we invited to join on this journey together this Eastertide. Come and see…

Please RSVP for all attendees in order to secure your free food truck lunch. Your voucher(s) will be available at the event. Register using this link.


All congregations attending Cathedral Day (whether or not members of the congregation are being confirmed in the liturgy) are encourages to:

1. bring their parish banners to carry in the procession and

2. bring a small container of water from your part of the world. (The water you bring will be poured into the baptismal font during the liturgy and will be part of the water we use when we asperge the people as they remember their baptisms.)


STREAM THE SERVICE OR VIEW THE RECORDING

The service will be livestreamed. After the service, an archive recording will be available on the website.
