Continued Support for the Episcopal Cathedral in Havana | |
This week the Cathedral Chapter held its monthly meeting, and there was overwhelming enthusiasm for continued support of the people of the Episcopal Cathedral of La Santísima Trinidad in Havana. During this time of critical food and supply shortages in Cuba, this new friendship between our two cathedrals is extremely important. I am so very grateful for the eagerness to share our resources with our fellow Episcopalians in Cuba who desperately need our help at this moment.
Thanks to the generosity of so many of you, the food and vitamins that we transported to Havana three weeks ago are still being distributed to Cathedral parishioners and family members on a daily basis. Dean Gilberto Caballero Elizalde continues to send us pictures (see below) of those parishioners as they receive them with gratitude.

|
Starting next week, we will begin collecting more food and vitamins here at Trinity Cathedral, and we plan to transport them to Cuba at the beginning of December. This is a wonderful opportunity to travel to Havana and stay on the Cathedral campus with a small group of 10-12 people. The Cathedral has converted its former school into a modest hostel with private bedrooms and bathrooms. With our mission team from Trinity Cathedral, we will be able to transport over 30 suitcases full of supplies in December!
Watch for more details about donations and about this mission opportunity in the coming days and weeks.

Items to consider include canned goods, peanut butter, packaged cereals, paper products, bottled water, dish and laundry soaps, boxed dinners, toiletry items, and feminine hygiene products. Remember that we cannot accept expired food or items that need refrigeration.

"Pews to Chairs" Project
There is still time to donate a chair!
For many decades now, pews have been replaced by chairs in countless cathedrals and churches across the Episcopal Church and the world with remarkable success. In many cases, it has allowed congregations to experience a transformation and rebirth of their communities. Stackable, multi-use chairs will give Trinity a fully flexible and multi-purpose space that functions not only for worship, but for a variety of ministry and community events. (See the above picture of Trinity's new cathedral chairs which arrived the week before Christmas.)
The success of Transforming Trinity and the Pews to Chairs project depends on the donation of chairs by cathedral parishioners, congregations, and individuals across The Episcopal Church in Southeast Florida and the wider Church. Chairs may be donated in honor of or in memory of a loved one or in honor of a specific church, congregation, or organization. Please consider donating one or more chairs!
To donate: Please download the chair donation form HERE, complete it, and make your check payable to Trinity Episcopal Cathedral. Please make sure to write “Pews to Chairs” in the memo line. Mail checks and forms to: Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 464 NE 16th Street, Miami, FL 33132.
Online donations can also be made on the Cathedral website (www.trinitymiami.org) under the “Giving” tab – please be sure to choose the “Pews to Chairs Campaign” on the dropdown menu to designate your donation.
Please reach out to Father Jason by email at frjason@trinitymiami.org if you have any questions or concerns. You can also find more details about the Pews to Chairs project HERE.

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for (audience)? Why should they care (benefit)? What do I want them to do (call-to-action)?
Create a great offer by adding words like "free," "personalized," "complimentary," or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take action, so consider inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
