Intercessory Prayer
As a Church, we believe in the power of prayer. Intercessory prayer
ministers intercede before the Lord on a daily basis, carrying those
petitions which are written each weekend in our Parish Intercessory
Prayer Book. This is a spiritual ministry for anyone.

Laudis Cantores (Praise Singers)
This choir is archdiocesan in nature in that its members come from many
different parishes in the Indianapolis area. Laudis Cantores sing twice
a month, from September through early June, at the 10:30 a.m. Sunday
liturgy. The choir sings liturgical music of many styles and of varying
degrees of difficulty. Rehearsals are on each Monday evening, 7 to 9
p.m. in the Cathedral. Adults with some experience in choral singing
are encouraged to contact the director, Ed Greene.

organizational tasks for such an event.
