SUMMARY:July 4 Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:The Solemnity of the Rededication of the Cathedral \nJuly 4 not only marks the celebration of our country’s independence but also the anniversary of the re-dedication of the Cathedral of Saint Andrew in 1903\, which is an official feast day for the Diocese of Grand Rapids. \nFollowing a devastating fire in 1901\, the cathedral was restored\, expanded\, and then re-dedicated and consecrated during celebrations on July 4\, 1903\, involving thousands of Grand Rapids citizens and parishioners as well as bishops\, priests\, local officials\, and the apostolic delegate to the United States. \nHidden above the ceiling that you see in the cathedral today are the original massive wooden beams\, still charred from that major fire in 1901 which was caused by lightning. \nMass for the anniversary of the Cathedral dedication will be celebrated July 4 at 9 a.m. The anniversary of our country’s independence will also be recognized. All are welcome! \nTo learn more about the Cathedral’s history visit https://grcathedral.org/visit/about-the-cathedral/cathedral-history/ \n
