National Cathedral tenure

Lloyd's tenure as Dean of the Washington National Cathedral was 2005–2011. During his time in Washington, he celebrated the Cathedral’s centennial, launched a resident congregation that continues as the beating heart of the Cathedral's worship life, established the Cathedral as a premiere home for important civic conversations,[7] and led Disciples of Christ in Community classes to establish community within the congregation. Throughout his ministry, he was widely regarded as one of the most effective preachers in the modern church. The Cathedral budget, overseen by The Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation (PECF),[8] was affected by the 2009 stock market crash and it had undertaken construction of an expensive underground parking lot shortly after Lloyd arrived (albeit with plans having existed before Lloyd), but expensive and needed repairs to the cathedral itself were not undertaken.[9]
