From January 23 – 26, 2025, Birmingham is hosting a Pastoral Week for priests, religious, and lay workers in deaf ministry throughout the U.S.A. and Canada. The National Catholic Office for the Deaf (NCOD) is a professional support network for those engaged in Deaf Ministry throughout our country and Canada. One of the highlights of the event will be the 11:00 a.m. Mass at the Cathedral in Birmingham on Sunday, January 26. Interpreters will be available. If you have any deaf parishioners who would like to join us at the Cathedral, please know they are most welcome.
