The season of Easter is full of new life at St. Luke’s. I am pleased to announce that we have hired our current Edible Hope Kitchen Manager, Nick Gardner to take on additional responsibility as our EHK Program Director. Nick will now be working full-time to cover both positions. As we say “farewell” to Daniel Wolff, we can be assured that the Kitchen is in good hands going forward. Our recent Donor Dinner was successful in raising funds to continue our program of feeding people and building community.

We are also excited to welcome Bridget as our Nursery/Childcare provider on Sunday mornings. Bridget just completed her sophomore year at Boston College and is home in Seattle for the summer. She has a lot of experience as a nanny and teaching assistant with young children. You can welcome her this coming Sunday as she gets to know our wonderful children and families.

Most importantly, we are preparing for the conclusion of the Spiritual Pilgrimage with the Affirmation of Christian Vocation on the Feast of Pentecost, June 8. This will be the baptism day for Snow, who is completing the pilgrimage along with those who were confirmed or received at Cathedral Day. While God woos us from birth, baptism is the outward sign of our participation in the life of faith and of our inclusion in the Body of Christ.

Stay tuned. There will be more exciting news in the next few weeks about our calling process for an Assisting Priest and construction dates.

Blessings,
Canon Britt+
