Saint Mark's Episcopal Cathedral
Who We Are
Welcome, Inspire, Serve, Transform
Welcoming all to live the light of Christ!
We believe that the light and love of God are at the very heart of all things. This light and love are fully manifested for Christians in the life of Jesus of Nazareth and we believe they are also revealed in all of the great faith traditions. We commit to living into this sacred light and sharing it freely with all.
We strive to live out the promise made in the Baptismal Covenant “to seek and serve Christ in all persons, respecting the dignity of every human being.” Accordingly, we are an open and affirming community. We welcome people of every denomination and faith.
