The Cathedral of Christ the Light remains immensely grateful to all parishioners and visitors for their generous contributions. In the year 2019, donations and weekly offerings accounted for over 84% of the Cathedral's total gross income, meaning that continued operations at the Cathedral are literally impossible without your sustained and generous support.
As we begin a transition from traditional paper envelope donations to electronic means of contributions, the Cathedral offers two easy options for you to donate: one onine platform and an in-person option. Donating through the Cathedral's Online Giving Hub through Our Sunday Visitor (OSV) ensures that your funds come into the Cathedral's account immediately. We retain these options in order to give each individual donor the maximum flexibility; those who wish to keep donating through traditional envelopes can continue to do so, while those who wish to make use of electronic options are free to switch.
In addition to these two options, donors are also free to mail their contribution to:
The Cathedral of Christ the Light
2121 Harrison Street
Oakland, CA 94612
See below for an explanation of your options. Thank you again for your generosity, and above all for your continued prayers.
In-person donations can be dropped in any donation box at the Cathedral, or placed in any collection basket when collections are taken at public Mass.
These funds are counted and deposited once a week.
The OSV Hub is the Cathedral's own online givine platform. All funds donated through OSV go directly into the Cathedral account. Donating is easy! Simply go to our portal at:
osvhub.com/ctlcathedral
This is the fasted method to ensure that the Cathedral receives your funds without the mediation of a third party.
The OSV Hub also allows you to set up recurring weekly donations, to give a one-time offering, to give to the St. Vincent de Paul Society, and to contribute to the Bishop's Appeal.
