August clericus

[Patricia Sexton]

Dear All,

Sixteen clergy met at Trinity Cathedral on August 14th for our first clericus after our summer break.  Thank you to Trinity clergy and staff for graciously hosting us.

It was great to check in with everyone and hear about personal and parish activities.  We got to meet The Rev. Dane Boston who started recently at Trinity.  Rev. Emily Hylden announced that Trinity will be offering daily Morning and Evening Prayer at 8am and 5:30pm, respectively.

Rev. Wayne Kinyon filled us on what is happening with chaplaincy at Finlay House (Community of Hope Chaplains are visiting people and the question of a weekly Eucharist is still up in the air).

We reviewed the Diocesan Pledge Report and the Pledge Analysis of the last decade of pledges.  We discussed the need for a transparent process of accountability for filing of pledge letters of commitment and for receipt of pledge income.

If you have agenda items for any clericus please send them to me. Thank you.

Patricia Sexton
