Cathedrals have a distinctive capacity and calling to bring people of all spiritual and political backgrounds together to pray, mourn, learn and act in times of crisis and change. Dean Malcolm Clemens Young will talk with Dean Hollerith of Washington National Cathedral, the second-largest Episcopal cathedral in the United States and seat of the bishop of Washington. Washington National Cathedral serves as a spiritual home for the nation, from holding Inaugural Prayer Services and presidential funerals to interring the ashes of Matthew Shephard. Dean Hollerith has reoriented WNC toward radical welcome and hospitality, with a particular focus on racial reconciliation and outreach to the nation’s veterans. Dean Young and Dean Hollerith will reflect together on a cathedral’s unique role in a time of crisis.
