July 2025 News

Hello everyone!

If you are in town this 4th of July, join us on the front steps of the Cathedral for a free concert performed by Steven C & Friends. There is also a 9 a.m. Independence Day Mass for those who wish to attend.

It has been nine years since Steven filmed the music video for “Daybreak,” on the Cathedral plaza and the video has had millions of views and streamed 20 million times. I heard he’ll recreate some of that magic on Friday!

See you on the front steps wearing your red, white and blue!
