The Cathedral Church of All Saints is an Episcopal cathedral located in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. It serves as the seat of the Diocese of the Virgin Islands and stands as one of the island’s most historic and architecturally distinguished religious landmarks. The church is both a center of worship and a symbol of freedom, built to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in 1848.

Constructed from locally quarried stone, the Cathedral Church of All Saints showcases Caribbean colonial architecture with unique yellow-brick window arches, said to be made from ship ballast. Inside, it features a vaulted ceiling, ornate altar carvings, and stained glass windows that fill the sanctuary with vibrant light and color. The building’s design reflects both European influences and the island’s craftsmanship traditions. 

The cathedral’s founding was deeply tied to the island’s post-emancipation identity, serving as a place of unity and celebration. Over time, it became the principal Episcopal church in the Virgin Islands, guiding the spiritual and cultural life of St. Thomas. Its adjoining All Saints Cathedral School continues that mission by offering faith-based education from elementary through secondary levels. 

Today, the cathedral remains an active faith community led by clergy and lay leaders such as The Reverend Deacon Romaine Carter. Parish ministries emphasize inclusivity, service, and spiritual growth, engaging residents and visitors alike through worship, education, and outreach.
