Good news! The Cathedral Annual Meeting is Here! |
Give us grace, O Lord, to answer readily the call of our Savior Jesus Christ and proclaim to all people the Good News of his salvation, that we and the whole world may perceive the glory of his marvelous works; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
This Sunday at 11:15, the entire Cathedral community will gather for our Annual Meeting. This important gathering is a requirement of every parish and mission in the Episcopal Church. But more importantly, it is the only opportunity we have each year to discuss the mission, vision, ministries, and business of the Cathedral, all together, as one united congregation.
The Annual Meeting is also our yearly opportunity to share the good news of the Cathedral. And this year, there is a lot of good news! The cathedral congregation is growing and flourishing, and as we approach the 100th Anniversary of our Cathedral building in 2024-25, the next year is sure to bring new and wonderful opportunities in the life of our community.
Here is a sneak peek at some of the important agenda items for the Annual Meeting:
- Election of New Cathedral Chapter Members
- New Online Cathedral Directory
- New Livestream and Sound System
- New Trust Fund for Organ Maintenance
- New Investment Accounts and Endowment Fund
- New Columbarium Expansion
- 2023 Year-end Financial Report
- 2024 Stewardship Update
- 2024 Budget
- Trinity Block Redevelopment Project and Construction Update
- Pews to Chairs Update
| |
So whether you normally attend the 8:00, 10:00, or 12:15** worship services, please do your very best to attend this critical meeting for the coming year. We hope to see everyone in person at 11:15 this Sunday!
**Note: the 12:15 worship service will begin at 12:30 this week.
Many blessings,
Father Jason
The Very Reverend Jason Roberson
Cathedral Provost

"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For many decades now, pews have been replaced by chairs in countless cathedrals and churches across the Episcopal Church and the world with remarkable success.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.
