SUNDAY WAS WONDERFUL AND THERE IS MORE TO COME DURING THE SUMMER!!!

There was special feeling and enthusiasm of the Spirit alive and well at 10:00 last Sunday!! Having an almost full church singing, balloons floating in the air, great sermon--it was a great celebration of the Spirit and our life together. And that is just the first of many more to come.

That same spirit was alive and well at the Parish Party that night as we enjoyed each other's company and honored and gave thanks for Rob Robertson for his thirty years of love and commitment to this Cathedral and very special thank you's go to Ruth Fletcher and her crew who provided this family with a mist wonderful time!!

This Sunday, June 10, our seminarian Andrew McLarty will preach before he heads off to Sewanee in the Fall. And he gets to preach on Trinity Sunday!!!

Also, Jennifer will be gone on some much needed time away with her family beginning on June 12.

On June 15, Katie Bradshaw officially comes on staff with us. We are thrilled and excited to have Katie with us for our Cursillo Eucharist on June 18. She will celebrate and I will preach. Cursillo is a "short course in Christianity" and is a wonderful four days of sharing Christian love. I encourage you to attend one weekend.

Also, on that day we will join Charles and Lee Jackson following church that day as they celebrate FIFTY YEARS OF MARRIAGE with a light lunch for their Cathedral family!

And that just gets us through the next two Sundays.

June 21 | Matthew Guinn & John Grisham! Our own St Andrews parishioner, Matthew Guinn will be speaking at Lemuria with some other well know writers on June 21st. Matt had this to say:

" It's going to be John Grisham, Greg Iles, and me (might as well change my name to The Other Guy) just talking about writing and the book business. Tickets are $32, which I believe includes a copy of Camino Island, with the rest benefitting the MS Book Festival. Here's a link about Grisham's tour, which is intended to highlight the importance of independent bookstores like Lemuria: https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/nation-now/2017/04/19/john-grisham-camino-island/100630236/ Peace, Matthew"

VERY FEW TICKETS ARE STILL AVAIABLE.
