The Cathedral is about more than just worship,
it is about being part of a family.

FROM THE DEAN
Welcome to the Virtual home of the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist! While we are delighted that you are joining us here, we hope that you will also come visit us in person. We have the privilege of worshipping and serving in this magnificent Gothic Cathedral – a symbol of our heritage within the worldwide Anglican Communion. I first came to the Cathedral over 30 years ago as a Choral Scholar, but never imagined at that time that I would return as Rector. The many incredible people who volunteer, serve, and minister here in this community, make this a warm and welcoming place to call home. We hope that the Cathedral will be your Spiritual Home as well!
The Very Reverend Roger Whalen
