Our Statement of Commitment and Action: Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral Covenant

We proclaim by word and example the gospel of Jesus Christ and we reaffirm our baptismal covenant: To respect the dignity of every human being, strive for justice and peace among all people, and seek and serve Christ in all persons. We are concerned about the increase in statements and actions in our nation that target particular groups of people based on their skin color, their religious affiliation, their gender or orientation, their abilities, or their country of birth. These are artificial divisions that we vehemently denounce as discriminatory and disrespectful. ~From our "Statement of Commitment and Action"

Update on the Search for a New Dean of the Cathedral:

We are indeed blessed that so many talented priests with a wealth of experiences and backgrounds have asked to be considered as the Cathedral's next Dean.  The candidates' willingness to participate in our discernment process is an incredible gift.  The Nominating Committee is reviewing the applications and then will interview selected candidates.  This will take time.  We ask for the congregation's and the candidates' patience as we move forward with this holy process.
