“It is not by accident that I chose the
Washington National Cathedral for my
installation. It is a House of Prayer for all
people. Also, it is the National Cathedral and
we are the National Council of Churches. This
Cathedral overlooks our nation’s Capitol, for
which we pray. Its mission is to provide a
clear, forceful, compelling articulation of the
Gospel, so that we might not neglect but we
might remember and we might serve.
“Our vision must spread to this Capitol and to the world God sustains and loves.”
– Bishop Craig B. Anderson
