Dear People of Trinity Cathedral,
From shortly after my arrival as interim Dean, the Rev. Susan Sims Smith has been with us as a volunteer Priest Associate—preaching, teaching, taking services, and ready with wise advice and spiritual counsel. After nearly two years, she needs to more fully turn her attention to the rich variety of other work to which God has called her. October 11 will be her last day with us as a staff volunteer and part of the Sunday Rota. This happens also to be Stewardship Sunday. I would hard-pressed to name a person I have known who more devoutly applies the principles of stewardship—time, talent, treasure—than our friend Susan.
