We owe The Rev. Myra Kingsley a true debt of gratitude for working with our school partnerships at both Garfield and Dunbar Elementary, and we also thank Robert Hagerty for his coordination of our Blood Drive. Thank you both for all that you do!
You, the people of Trinity Cathedral are making a tremendous difference in the life of Phoenix, and you are blessing others by your prayers, by your thoughts, and by your actions! We live more fully into our mission:
Welcoming all to be transformed in Christ, through worship, fellowship, and service.
One more thing: Don't forget that our bishop, The Rt. Rev. Jennifer Reddall, will be our preacher this Sunday, July 12th. See you on-line!
In Christ's peace and love,

A Word from the Music Department
|
|
Beginning on Sunday 12 July and continuing throughout the program year of 2020-2021, the Music Department at Trinity Cathedral commits to highlight the contributions made to sacred music by black, indigenous, and other composers of color. It is my intention that music from this much neglected pool of sacred art will be integrated into both the Sunday on-line services and in-person worship. As much of it will be new and unfamiliar to many of us, I will provide information and background on music and composers in both the Thursday E-blast and the printed Sunday morning announcements. I hope this will help expand the sounds of our worship and display more fully the diversity of God’s creation.

On Sunday at 7:00 p.m., members of the cathedral choir will offer a weekly evening service for our cathedral community. A blending of two evening offices, this service will offer prayers, the reading of psalm and scripture, moments of reflection, and musical offerings. Please consider it our spiritual gift to you and we hope that you will find it both a place of calm and reflection in these distracted times. You will be able to find this service by accessing our website home page.

The CDC now recommends that we all wear a mask when we are out in public. A simple cloth face covering is all that is needed, but it should cover your nose and mouth and fit snugly against the side of your face. Please do not use any kind of face mask meant for our health care workers; they face critical shortages.
Directions for wearing and making cloth masks may be found at
cdc.gov
under the section “Cloth Face Coverings” or by searching online for additional information.
Banner Health Foundation is accepting homemade masks and other supplies through its Project C.U.R.E. Honor Health is also accepting donations; call (480) 587-6600 for more information. Dignity Health hospitals have individual policies for accepting donations.
Be extremely careful when removing your mask. Do not touch your face and immediately wash your hands following removal. Launder your face mask regularly depending on how often it is used.
Remember, our masks will not take the place of washing our hands often and observing social distancing.

Trinity Cathedral Cares Benevolence Fund
|
|
Dear Friends,
Your cathedral chapter has established a Benevolence Fund to provide financial support for individuals and families who have fallen on difficult times financially as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The scale of the coronavirus crisis is unmatched in recent history. It is a global pandemic that has reshaped society at every level and is reorienting our relationship to our community and to one another.
Our cathedral community has always rallied around members when they've experienced extreme hardship, and this is one of the ways that all of us can do something to help.
To that end, the cathedral chapter has established a restricted fund known as The Benevolence Fund to provide financial support for individuals and families who have fallen on difficult times financially as a result of or in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Whether people have lost jobs, had pay reduced, or are struggling to survive, the Benevolence Fund is designed to provide one-time payments to help those affiliated with Trinity Cathedral move through these unprecedented times.
We are the people of Trinity Cathedral, and daily, we live into our mission:
Welcoming all to be transformed in Christ through worship, fellowship, and service.
