Family Ministries

The Cathedral invites families to classes and special celebrations throughout the year.

The 2024 Calendar for families is here.

From September through May, Fellowship in Faith offers Christian formation for children on Sunday mornings between 10:15am-11am, at the Mercer School. Lessons draw from the Bible, Christian tradition, and the natural world to deepen children’s spiritual lives, and develop their expressions of faith.

During this time, adults are invited to the Dean’s Forum where clergy and guest speakers lead discussions on a variety of spiritual topics.

In addition to Fellowship in Faith, children are encouraged to lead worship, sing in the choir, and participate in retreats, celebrations service opportunities throughout the year.

To learn more, or to register, please email Mo. Kate Salisbury at ksalisbury@incarnationgc.org.
