If you have a love of the Harry Potter books, or a passion for children's ministry, or both, we would love to have your help with this huge undertaking. Maybe you know how to referee a Quiddich game. Perhaps you can lead kids in a wand-making class. Or you have lots of great ideas about how we can transform Grace Cathedral into Hogwarts by the Bay. We will need lots of adults and teens to lead each house and to make this day work.

Please email Caren Miles, Associate for Faith Formation, if you would like to volunteer in any way.
