Letter From The Reverend Brian Cleary

​

Dear Church Family,

​

The Spirit led me to this church in 2022 to help it recover from the devastating hurricane Ian.  We have done much more than just recover over the past three years.  Today All Souls has a thriving choir program, two worship services, a Spanish speaking service, a growing congregation, a food pantry, and thrift store. The church has never looked better and ministries are thriving. 

​

Like St. Philip who was taken up by the Spirit after baptizing the Ethiopian eunuch, the Spirit has called me to help lead a parish in Salinas California. We have shared many special moments over the past few years and I will cherish the relationships that have been formed.  I am always in awe of your commitment to Jesus Christ and your serving our brothers and sisters in need.  I will hold you forever in my heart.

​

I must begin my work there on May 1st. My last Sunday will be April 20th which is Easter and a day of resurrection.  Let us hold to that promise!

​

In Christ +

​

Father Brian
