Spotlight: RefugeeNet
As part of our Easter celebration of diocesan ministries, this week we highlight the work of RefugeeNet, whose mission is to assist refugee families as they arrive in San Diego. We provide native language caseworkers who help families navigate their new environment, including transportation to appointments with schools, medical providers, and support agencies. We help families acquire household furnishings and clothing. We also provide tutoring and field trips for the children and distribute fresh fruit and vegetables weekly. In their effort to escape war or persecution, refugees often experience a life-or-death struggle to reach a UN Refugee Camp. There they wait for years for state department and homeland security approval to travel to a safe home in our community, where they face new challenges. RefugeeNet is dedicated to assisting refugees through this process.
Getting to know our supply priest...
The Rev. Thomas Wilson

Fr. Tom will be with us from time to time over the next few months as our supply priest while Fr. Tim is away on personal or church business. So let's get to know him!

He was born and raised in Ohio, taught music at the high school level, and was ordained deacon in 2008 and priest in 2009 by Bishop Mathes. He's retired from full-time priestly ministry but serves a weekday Eucharist at the Cathedral and fills in around the diocese as requested. He serves on the Bishop Nominating Committee and the Diocesan Property Committee. Fr. Tom enjoys travel, visiting museums, attending concerts, playing bridge, baking, cooking and genealogy.

Welcome Fr. Tom and thank you for being with us!

9:15 a.m. Sundays during Eastertide

April 22, 29, May 6, (13 excluded, Mother's Day), and 20
Have you ever wondered how to pray? It seems so simple, and at times it is. Yet who of us has been able to tap even a fraction of the richness found within the ancient and modern traditions of prayer and spirituality? This Eastertide (the 50 days from Easter to Pentecost), Father Tim has assembled a team to lead us in an exploration into these themes and practices. Please join us for Adult Forum, Sundays at 9:15 am in Julian Hall.
