St. Christopher's Church

There will be mass for the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Monday, August 15, at 7 PM. This is not a Holy day of Obligation this year, but the mass is being offered for those who would like to celebrate the day.

The Cathedral of Saint Peter, in the historic Quaker Hill section of the City of Wilmington, is the Bishop’s own parish and the center of Catholicism in our diocese. It was built over 200 years ago – 50 years before the founding of the Diocese of Wilmington - and continues with a small but dedicated parish community and school.   At the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, the diocese began live-streaming Sunday Mass from our Cathedral. That effort continues today.  In 2015, Bishop Malooly, with the support of the priests of the diocese, instituted an annual special collection to support the maintenance and ministry of our Cathedral. This year, the collection will be held on August 13 & 14. More information is available at www.cathedralofstpeter.comand at www.cdow.org/cathedral. We thank you for your generosity.
