Pet Blessing
September 08, 2021
On Saturday, October 2 at 11 a.m. St. James will hold the annual Pet Blessing to mark the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. Bring your animals and join us on the plaza at 65 E. Huron for blessings, treats, and fellowship with our neighbors.
We are in need of animal lovers to help us extend a welcoming arm! If you would like to be involved, email the Rev. Canon Lisa Hackney-James.
We hope to see you, and your beloved pets, October 2.
Dean's Forum - Back to Basics
September 08, 2021
After eighteen months during which our experience of church has been highly limited, the cathedral clergy are pleased to offer a refresher course in being a church-going, Episcopalian Christian! Join us for a year-long Dean’s Forum discussion series beginning on Sunday, September 19, which will cover many aspects of Christian faith and life, including:
The Bible
The Holy Trinity
Prayer
Sacraments
The Creeds
The history of the Church
Christian ethics
Each session will begin promptly at 10 a.m. in Kyle’s Place. We hope it will be possible to make these sessions available by live-stream, but the results will likely be not very satisfactory, and you are encouraged to attend in person if possible.
