MINISTRY OF VOLUNTEERING The Cathedral needs you!!! Please consider lending your time and talent to various ministries suitable to your time, schedule, and skills. Ministries in particular need include Liturgical Ministers [Eucharistic Ministers (EMs), acolytes, ushers, Altar Guild, bell ringers], office support, and Cathedral docents. Please talk to the Dean if you'd like to help.
ASSISTING WITH CELTIC CHURCH'S FOOD MINISTRY As this is the third Sunday of the month, Saint Andrew's provides the volunteers to run the Celtic Ministry this afternoon. If you have ever been curious about the Celtic Ministry but never had the experience, now is your chance. Please show up at 1:00 pm at Davies Kitchen on the Queen Emma Street side of the Cathedral complex. Food preparation, serving and clean up lasts until 3:00 pm. This is a wonderful opportunity to assist Honolulu's neediest and most marginalized. Please join us at 1:00 pm to help out. ~Ann Hansen
BAPTISM AT THE EASTER VIGIL The Easter Vigil is the principal feast day of the year. Adults and youth seeking faith and baptism, or parents desiring to present children for baptism should contact Dan Benedict at
formation@thecathedralofstandrew.org or call 489-4004. A process of exploration and preparation will begin mid-January.
JOURNEY The Cathedral community will begin JOURNEY on January 22, 2012. Journey is for those who have questions or find themselves drawn to a deeper life of faith and want to explore more deeply what it means to practice the Christian life through the Episcopal Church. If you are not baptized, or are baptized, you are invited to share in JOURNEY. If you have been confirmed in the Episcopal Church but have been inactive and want to return, or were baptized or confirmed in another tradition, you are welcome to participate in JOURNEY. If you are an active member of the cathedral, but would like to refresh and go deeper, you are welcome to join in JOURNEY. Contact Dan Benedict at
formation@thecathedralofstandrew.org or call 489-4004.
Helping with JOURNEY The whole cathedral community will welcome and make the pilgrimage with those seeking the way of faith in worship, prayer, reflection on Scripture, and daily life. If you would like to assist in some way with welcoming and sponsoring men, women, and youth in seeking the way of faith, please contact Dan Benedict for more details at
formation@thecathedralofstandrew.org or call 489-4004.

We warmly welcome your donations toward the purchase of altar flowers, which may be given in honor and memory of a loved one who has passed away, or in celebration of a birthday, anniversary, or other special occasion. The cost of a full arrangement averages $250 each week; donations of $50 or more are welcome to defray the cost of flowers. The person or occasion you choose to honor will be mentioned in the church bulletin. Please make checks payable to the Cathedral of St. Andrew, noting "altar flowers" in the memo line, and mail to Natasha Dator in the Cathedral office. Please designate the Sunday and the name of the person and/or occasion you wish to honor with your gift. If you have further questions, please contact Judy Masuda at 988-0969.
