Greetings!
I met with Bonnie Grissett a few days ago. She lay in her hospital
bed and spoke about her love of the Cathedral. I asked if I could write her
words down and share them with you. She said yes:
The churBonnie Grissett with her grandson, Wallace  | ch has been good to me ever since I walked
through the door. I came in the early '80s. My kids were at Episcopal. Don
Wimberly was the dean. I went into the church itself and they were moving
everything around. The cathedral had so much to offer my teenagers so we moved
to the cathedral.
Both of my boys were acolytes. They were active in the
youth group and I joined the Sanctuary Guild. I loved preparing for worship and
helping people take communion. It is so special because everyone who comes to
the communion rail gets the affirmation that they are God's child. I get that
too.
My parents had a grocery store and they made me work
there. I had to learn a lot about people early on. I love people.
When I got cancer this time it hit hard. People began
praying for me and I can feel it. This church has always been there for me. I
am so blessed.
Please join me in praying for Bonnie and rejoicing in her grateful spirit.

The Very Rev. Kate Moorhead, Dean
