Two Important Events in October

There are two important events coming up this October in the life of the Episcopal Church in Southeast Florida. On Saturday, October 5th at 10:00 a.m., Trinity Cathedral and our diocesan Center for Christian Formation and Leadership (www.dioschool.org) will host a Celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Ordination of Women to the Priesthood.

On July 29, 1974 eleven women were ordained priests at the Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia, on the feast of St. Mary and St. Martha, two years before General Convention authorized the ordination of women. They have become known as "The Philadelphia Eleven," and their story is being celebrated around the Church this year. On October 5th we will host a day of celebration at the Cathedral, including a screening of the feature-length documentary film about the historic ordinations, a panel discussion about women's ordination, lunch, and a celebration of Holy Eucharist with Bishop Eaton. More information about the documentary film can be found HERE.

On Friday, October 25th, our diocese will welcome our newly-elected Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, the Right Reverend Sean Rowe, to our annual Diocesan Convention. Bishop Rowe will be the celebrant and preacher at the Convention Eucharist on Friday afternoon, and the service is open to all. This year's 55th Diocesan Convention will be hosted by the Broward Deanery and held at St. Andrew's School in Boca Raton. More information about Diocesan Convention can be found HERE, and please see the invitation from Bishop Eaton below. Save the dates, and plan to join us for these historic and important events!

Many blessings,

Father Jason

Names for the donations are listed in the Friday e-Newsletter and in the Sunday service bulletin.

Please email the Cathedral office at office@trinitymiami.org or call (305) 456-8851 to make your donations to this important ministry.

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For many decades now, pews have been replaced by chairs in countless cathedrals and churches across the Episcopal Church and the world with remarkable success.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

The Ninth Sunday after Pentecost

How does the thought of taking time for rest, reflection, and prayer make you feel? Why?

The book of Jeremiah, named after the prophet Jeremiah, was written for the people of Judah who had just survived three invasions by the Babylonians that resulted in the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple and exile from their homeland. They were a people trying to understand how this destruction, death, and separation could have occurred to the faithful children of God.
