Overnights
Youth overnights at the Cathedral are a popular activity. Our Halloween overnight in
October follows the Topeka Shawnee County Public Library’s annual Silents in the
Cathedral and includes tours of the tower and crypt, worship, and ghost stories and
games. During Holy Week, we offer a Maundy Thursday overnight to prepare for
Easter by “keeping watch with Jesus” following a congregational meal and celebration
of the Last Supper. We have other overnights in connection with Diocesan events,
late night activities, and service projects.

Field trips in recent years have
included two overnight trips to the
