Visiting the Cathedral

Located in the heart of Erie, we are a sacred space for all people. We seek to be a place where all people encounter the reconciling Gospel of Jesus Christ. We offer traditional Episcopal services on Sunday mornings, including the Eucharist, and a variety of other services throughout the month.

We invite you to explore which worship experience is right for your spiritual journey.

When coming to the Cathedral, you will notice people of all ages and genders, sexualities and backgrounds. We strive to model of the kingdom of God: a place where all are welcome in their diversity to join together in a common desire to encounter God. All ranges of dress can be found on a Sunday, but you will find that folks to tend dress up a bit more for those services than throughout the week. Children are welcome in worship or to attend our nursery.

On Sundays our worship includes the Holy Eucharist, also called Holy Communion. The structure of Word and Sacrament features a sermon and an opportunity for the congregations to receive the Eucharist; if you wish not to receive, you may come forward for a blessing or remain in your seat. Children are invited to partake of the Eucharist, as they are equally part of God’s kingdom.

The Cathedral is a place where people come for one Sunday to visit and where people come to find a community to which they can belong at a deeper level.

We hope you’ll find what is comfortable for you.
