This week’s Principal Holy Eucharist, commemorating the Presentation of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Temple, will include the ceremonial seating of The Most Rev. Sean W. Rowe, 28th Presiding Bishop and Primate, The Episcopal Church. Since the 1940s, the Cathedral has been the formal seat of the Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church and the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, currently The Right Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde. During the service, Bishop Rowe will formally enter the Cathedral through the Great West Doors and take his seat in the Great Choir.
Our principal weekly Holy Eucharist anchors our worship life and prepares us for the week ahead. The Cathedral’s soaring architecture will point your eyes toward heaven as prayers, preaching and music open our hearts to God. Our worship is based on the traditions of The Episcopal Church and features beloved hymns, a hybrid blend of traditional and contemporary music and the best in Cathedral preaching. All who seek a deeper relationship with God in Christ are welcome to receive Communion.
