Haiti's
Holy Trinity Music School
The Reverend David Cesar,
priest, violist, Director of Haiti’s Holy Trinity Music School,
and Conductor of the Holy Trinity Philharmonic Orchestra, died on
June 10th. He was a primary coordinator of Holy
Trinity’s performance visits to the United States. Three times
they stayed and performed here at St. George’s. Although his
funeral has taken place, his life will be celebrated at a
memorial service at St. John’s Church in Maryland on September 5th. More details closer to that date will
follow.
Special Donation
We have supported The Holy
Trinity Music School with a collection the three times they have
stayed with and performed for us at St. George's. If you would like
to make a special donation to Holy Trinity Music School at this
time in the life of the school, please send your donations to St.
George's clearly marked for "Holy Trinity" and St.
George's will collectively make a donation.

Kwanzaa Kitchen: Janis has
been able to come up with a unique way in which we will continue
to feed the hungry in this important ministry. It involves fewer
than 6 people and we will pack the food to go and place it
outside on tables for people to take their breakfast with them.
We will continue this way until we are able to gather groups
together again.
