Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

At the end of June 2022 we said a fond Farewell to our Provost, Father Jason Leo, who has made the difficult, but absolutely correct, decision, to retire from active ministry to care for his family.   While we shall miss him very much, we support him and send him on with our love and prayers.

Under Father Leo’s leadership the Cathedral community has made great strides, and we have seen what is possible.   I am convinced that we can continue this momentum and work, even as we search for a new Provost.   I am grateful to Adrian and the Chapter for their commitment and hard work.   I am also grateful to Roberto Soto, who does so much every day to ensure that our ministries thrive.

We hope to have news of a new Provost very soon, but in the meantime I encourage everyone in our cathedral community to do all that we can to support our daily life and ministry.   A congregation is not just the priest;  it is all the faithful who, with the many gifts of God’s spirit, are able to do Jesus’ work every day in worship and service.   Let us go forward in the strength of our confidence not in ourselves, but in God, who always keeps his promises to us.

With love and prayers,

+Peter
