Buzz TV – “On a Mission” with Dean Kate Moorehead of St. John’s Cathedral

Each week on On a Mission, our host Penny Kieves takes us for a trip to see what’s going on down by the mission. Today Penny sat down with Kate Moorehead, Dean of St. John’s Cathedral.

St. John’s Cathedral is a vibrant church where we worship God, serve the poor and host art and music. We are working to redevelop the Cathedral District in the heart of downtown Jacksonville. We have birthed seven non-profit organizations over the decades-all of which work to improve the lives of children, the elderly and the life of this city. We offer hundreds of worship experiences each year with thousands attending in total. We now livestream our worship on the web. We also run a restaurant on Fridays where people who have been homeless or incarcerated can learn to be chefs and waiters. Our building is one of the oldest in Jacksonville. An architectural jewel, it is well over 100 years old and stands on the highest geographical point in the city. We have recently purchased a building across the street and moved our bookstore and some offices there. Come and visit the Cathedral Annex and Bookstore!
