Daily Mass is celebrated Monday through Friday at 12 noon at the Cathedral.  While some weekday liturgical ministers at the Cathedral are full-time parishioners, others are members of the weekday parish; parishioners at other local parishes who work or live downtown and wish to participate in ministry at the Cathedral.  Both training and scheduling of ministers are flexible so that the conflict between stewardship commitments and personal/professional responsibilities may be minimized.
