If you attended Chaplain Lea's ordination this week, you likely recognized the beauty of coming together in Trinity Church. Our choirs performed (and behaved) wonderfully, and it was a special day for our school and Lea. We will follow this with Episcopal School Sunday (see #1) this weekend. Have a great weekend!
