Flowering of the Cross & Parish Photo

An Easter Morning Tradition Between the morning services, the Cathedral family spills out into the Bishop’s Courtyard for one of the most beloved traditions of the year. The Flowering of the Cross invites everyone — children and adults alike — to bring fresh flowers from home and weave them into a bare wooden cross, transforming it from a symbol of death into a riot of color and life. It is a simple, beautiful act, and it never gets old. Then, dust off your finest Easter hat. The annual parish family photo is a joyful, festive moment that captures the community in full Easter splendor. Bring flowers. Wear something wonderful. Come and celebrate. Bring flowers. Wear your best hat. Come as Easter people.
