Cathedral Offertory
The Cathedral has now resumed the passing of Offering Plates. The plates will be passed by the Greeters and brought to the altar with the elements. You may recall this was suspended at the beginning of the pandemic, when there was uncertainty about how the virus was spread, and replaced by a box near the Narthex. At the Offertory, we offer back some of what God has given us, symbolically in the bread and wine, and in our contributions toward the work of the church. All are invited to support the sharing of God’s love with the world through giving by Pre-Authorized Payment, online through our website (for details, please use link below) or by weekly envelope.

Follow-up to the Dean’s Christmas Letter
Earlier this month you picked up Dean Tim’s Christmas 2022 letter or it was mailed to you. Even so, we want to ask you to consider the ministries of Christ’s Church Cathedral when giving gifts this year. The generosity of so many, keeps our programs up and running. Without your help it becomes more challenging for us to be a welcoming place of worship, learning, and refuge. How will you help the ministries of your Cathedral flourish? |

Masks Strongly Recommended
Current guidelines encourage mask wearing, particularly in crowded, enclosed, and close-contact settings. Effective immediately, Bishop Susan is strengthening guidance to mirror the chief medical officer of health's strong recommendation that masks be worn in indoor settings. By doing so, and applying additional layers of protection, we will not only protect ourselves but our most vulnerable neighbours. In this way, we are also bearing strong witness to God's call to love our neighbours. |
