Dear Parishioners,

We are writing from the Parish House where we’ve been able to fully assess the damage from last night’s protests.

As we know many of you have already heard, there was a small fire in the parish house basement. Thankfully, it appears to have been contained to the nursery—though, as you might imagine there is smoke and water damage to other areas of the basement.

We’re very happy to report that the rest of the church and parish house is untouched except for some exterior graffiti, which the city’s graffiti team has already covered up.
Fire investigators are still working, but once they are done, we have a crew standing by to secure the buildings.

Please know how grateful we are for the support and messages we’ve received in the
past days. Please continue to pray for our community and our country.

In peace,

Rev. Rob Fisher, Rector
Paul Barkett, Senior Warden
Jeff Hanston, Junior Warden
