From the Rector

Dear Parishioners and Friends,

As a member of the college of deans in the diocese of New York, I am privileged to attend monthly meetings with my fellow deans, as well as our three bishops. Our new bishop diocesan, the Right Reverend Matthew Heyd, has hit the ground running, and is seeking input from everyone in the diocese regarding the direction we will take under his leadership in the area of the mission of the diocese. Earlier this year, the clergy of our deanery met with members of the bishop's staff to share our hopes and concerns. Now it is your turn to weigh in.

I can tell you from my interactions with him that our bishop really is listening and really wants to be the bishop to all of the diocese, regardless of geography or other circumstances. I encourage you to click on the link below to listen to his message and to register for the Lay listening session for our region (Western Orange & Sullivan) this Saturday, March 16 at noon.
