We will be celebrating the Solemnity of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, King of the Universe in a special way. We will be praying using the Office of the Liturgy of Hours. This will be a musical Solemn Vespers.

Join us in the beauty of the Cathedral for a moment of musical prayer through the Psalms. There will be a moment of candlelight reflection. This event is for anyone that needs a moment of quiet in their overly busy life to encounter God in a special way, and the event is free. Parking is available on the street or in the Cathedral’s parking lot accessed by Otis in the rear of the building.
