Blessed Help

This post is late.  I have taken too long to write about the latest blessing that we have received on this restoration.  This blessing comes in the form of 21 men from St Peter's Episcopal Church in Fernandina Beach Florida. 

Located in Historic Fernandina Beach, FL. 801 Atlantic Avenue

These gentlemen were on there way to Barbuda to install a brand new roof on one of our churches there.  This is not a rarity.  They have been doing this for years.  Once a church in the diocese indentifies a significant construction project or need, these men assemble a team, book and pay for their own passage and bring their tools.  They have installed roofs in St. Kitts, Nevis and are no strangers to the Cathedral having done major repair to the upper balconies a few years ago.  Barbuda unfortunately was not ready in time for these gentlemen and so their loss became our gain. 

To simply say thanks to these men is not enough.  But it is gratifying to know that the work that they do now makes them a part of the very fabric of the Cathedral.  And so it is with all of us who play a part in this restoration.  We are becoming part of the very essence and substance that is the Cathedral that is Antigua.
