Dad Retreats (potentially leading to a Dad’s Support Group)
ALPHA Evangelization Evenings
Marriage Enrichment Evenings

The space will accommodate events of all sizes and will allow for easy access to the Church as an integral part of all ministry. The Cathedral will become the central place for all Faith Formation,
Evangelization and Mission in the community and in the Diocese, serving as both a model and support to all our parishes.
