Educational and Spiritual Opportunities

Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
Are You or Is Someone You Know Interested in Becoming Catholic?

Each year at the Cathedral adults are welcomed into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil through the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults). Gatherings for RCIA begin in the fall. You are welcome to join us as we set out on the journey to know God through knowing each other and growing in faith. If you just want to learn more about the RCIA process, or are ready to become Catholic, please contact Pat Wisialowski, Cathedral Pastoral Associate, patwisialowski@stjohncathedral.org, or 414-276-9814.

Women's Spirituality
Over Lunch in the Atrium

The Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist invites you to please join us for our monthly Women’s Spirituality Lunch/Discussion gathering. Women's Spirituality is a small group of women who meet monthly to enjoy intelligent conversations pertinent to current issues in the contemporary church. Camaraderie, lively discussions and even luscious desserts are "perks" making this a most worthwhile way to spend a lunch hour.

Where Every Student Shines!
Catholic East Elementary is a vibrant, diverse, Christ-centered school that has educated children in K4 through Grade 8 for more than 25 years.

Catholic East, located at the corner of Murray and Greenwich several blocks west of Columbia St. Mary’s Hospital, challenges students to tap into their full potential academically, spiritually, morally, socially and physically. Our peaceful atmosphere of loving, sharing and caring is built on the time-tested tradition of excellence in Catholic education that our five parishes share.

Catholic East Elementary offers all-day or half-day K4 options, small class sizes, individual attention, highly-qualified staff, after-school care, and a foundation in faith in a friendly neighborhood.

Catholic East is built on solid foundation of the parish schools that preceded it in the past 100 years: SS. Peter and Paul, Holy Rosary, Old Saint Mary, St. Rita, St. Mary of Czestochowa, St. Casimir and the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist.
