Thursday, December 1, 2022 – St. Joseph’s Chapel
Each year on December 1st, Washington National Cathedral and the Matthew Shepard Foundation honor Matthew on his birthday. The full day of events include an opportunity to pay tribute to Matt by joining us virtually for the Morning Prayer Service, led by the Right Reverend V. Gene Robinson, IX Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire (retired).
Supporters may also visit Matt’s final resting place, St. Joseph’s Chapel or join us in-person for a special evening service, which will include a dedication of a portrait of Matthew by artist Kelly Latimore and commissioned by LGBTQ members of the Cathedral staff.
All are welcome to come for support, connection, reflection and engagement. For additional event details visit Remembering Matthew Shepard. Learn more about the Washington National Cathedral.
