Weekend of October 11 | Washington National Cathedral, Washington, D.C.

We’re thrilled to announce that the National Acolyte Festival will be held the weekend of October 11 at the Washington National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. This is a special opportunity for our acolytes to learn, serve, worship, and connect with others from across the country in one of the most iconic sacred spaces in the Episcopal Church.

St. Cross has taken a team before, staying together in an Airbnb, participating in the festival, and exploring some of the D.C. sights. We hope to do the same this year—and would love for our eligible middle and high school acolytes to join us!

For eligibility requirements, please email Rev. Michelle at mbakerwright@stcross.org.
