Special Evensong and International Food Reception this Sunday

You won't want to miss this Sunday's special Choral Evensong, followed by the International Food Reception! The music for Evensong will be sung by both the Anglican Chorale of Southeast Florida and the Miami Collegium Musicum, directed by Dr. Matthew Brady and organist, Mr. Christopher Harrell. Dr. Brady is Associate Professor of Music at the University of Miami Frost School of Music, and we are honored to welcome him and his choir as they join us for this month's Choral Evensong.


Music for this Evensong includes:


  • Preces and Responses by William Byrd
  • a beautiful new Phos Hilaron "The Song of the Light" by contemporary British composer (and founder of the Gesualdo Six) Owain Park,
  • Magnificat & Nunc Dimittis, Collegium Regale

by Herbert Howells

  • Anthem Os Justi by Anton Bruckner
  • Organ voluntaries: Psalm Prelude 1/1 by Herbert Howells and Tocata de 5o Tono by Juan Cabanilles


Afterwards join us for our International Food Reception including a variety of cuisine from around the world. Please considering brining a dish to share, either from your country of origin or from a country you love!

The reception is being co-coordinated by Jackie Clarke and Shirley Pardon. Please let them know in advance what dish you will bring by emailing them at jackietrinity.ac@gmail.com or shirleypardon@gmail.com.


(**Since we do not currently have a kitchen at Trinity, we are asking for FINGER FOOD ONLY - we have no way of reheating or cooking any food.)


Thank you - help make this a memorable Evensong and International Food Reception, and please invite your friends and neighbors to join us!


Many blessings,


Father Jason

Honoring Bill Hopper


On Sunday, October 27th we will honor and thank Bill Hopper for his service at Trinity Cathedral. For the past several years, Dr. Hopper has served in both a volunteer and paid capacity as our Organist and Choir Director. Bill has been a faithful parishioner of the Cathedral since 1980, and he was the part-time organist from 1990-2005. Bill's dedication and love for Trinity Cathedral have helped sustain our music program for decades, and we are extremely grateful. 


On October 27th we will present Bill with a check to honor his service to the Cathedral. If you would like to donate to this gift for Bill, please do so. Checks can be made payable to Trinity Cathedral with "Bill Hopper" in the memo line, and donations can be made online here by selecting "Other" in the dropdown menu and writing "Bill Hopper" in the Comment box. Thank you for helping us make this financial gift for Bill possible!

In the Aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton

We continue to pray for all who have died, for first responders and rescue teams, for all who are injured, for those who are still missing, for all who have lost their homes, churches, and businesses, and for all who mourn.

Molisa Sjogreen

The funeral service for Molisa Sjogreen will be held at the Cathedral on Saturday, Oct. 26th at 11:00 a.m.


With deep sadness, and yet with steadfast faith in God, we announce the death of Cathedral parishioner Molisa Sjogreen on September 29th. Molisa joined Trinity in 1983, the Cathedral was her home, and she encouraged all six of her grandchildren to become acolytes. Please keep Molisa, her family, and her friends in your prayers. May she rest in peace, and let light perpetual shine upon her.

"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.

What does it mean for God to be a refuge?

This well-loved passage is from the fourth of Isaiah’s so-called “servant songs.” It describes the tribulation and ultimate triumph of a suffering servant who enacts God’s righteousness and salvation in the world. Christians typically read the servant as Jesus Christ. This interpretation goes back to the New Testament: in Acts 8, Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch discuss Isaiah 53:7-8 with reference to Jesus. And certainly, it is easy to see the resonance between the content of Isaiah 53 and the story of Jesus’ passion.
