Parish Life’s mission statement is to provide a welcoming church for all members and visitors, to plan activities for the church family to build community, and to maintain a newcomers’ ministry in which the entire congregation can participate.

The committee hosts a rally day for parish activities in the fall, a church picnic each summer, outings to events such as the Acoustic Christmas performance, and a reception for the annual Advent Lessons & Music service. Other activities in the have included Bike Trail Nights, parish softball team support, and a youth talent show.

For visitors, the committee writes follow-up notes and gives a gift of bread (donated by Breadsmith). Committee members make a point of welcoming visitors and helping them get involved in the parish. All groups at the Cathedral work well together, and Parish Life often supports other activities and receives the support of other groups in its efforts.

Parish Life meets the 2nd Monday of the month at 7:00 pm at a member’s house.
