Membership At The Cathedral Church of All Saints

Current members, as well as newcomers to the Cathedral, sometimes ask, "What is expected of me? What does membership entail?"

In order to respond to these and similar inquiries, this statement about membership is intended to establish greater clarity about what membership really means it is valid for all of us who call All Saints' home or who are considering becoming members.

The Catechism of the Book of Common Prayer defines the duty of all Christians in the following way.

"The duty of all Christians is to follow Christ; to come together week by week for corporate worship; and to work, pray, and give for the spread of the kingdom of God. "

Here at All Saints' Cathedral that means:

  1. Being a regular attendee at public worship, usually the Sunday morning Eucharist.
  2. Having a "Letter of Transfer" or "Parishioner Infonmation Form" on file inthe Cathedral Offfice so that we have accurate personal records. (Parishioner Infommation Fomms are available on the table in the Narthex, on the table outside the Sacristy or by request from the Cathedral Office).
  3. Maintaining a financial commitment (pledge) or other "contribution of record" that supports the life and ministry of All Saints' Cathedral.
  4. Sharing in the visible mission of the Cathedral through one of its many service groups, educational opportunhies, or other ministries.
  5. Praying for grace to serve God more effectively as an individual as well as a community of believers.

We love our Cathedral! We are growing and eager to welcome new disciples to share in our life and mission.
