Join us tomorrow at 2pm for our very first 'Virtual' Lunchtime Concert, featuring Gideon Brazil (flute, saxophones) and Elissa Goodrich (vibraphone, compositions) performing a selection of works from Heinrich Biber’s passacaglia, Erik Satie’s Gymnopedies, and Elissa’s Gene Tree Project. The Gene Tree Project is inspired by climate science and the themes of resilience, adaptation and extinction.
The concert will be streamed on our Youtube Channel, with donations encouraged to support the work of the Cathedral’s Music Foundation: www.cathedral.org.au/donate

Tips for joining in Worship at home:
- Be ready to go 10 minutes before the service is starting with your computer, iPad or TV set up and connected and volume turned up. The livestream will appear a few minutes before the service is scheduled to begin.
- If you have a printer, you may want to print the Order of Service in advance and have it ready for Sunday Morning, otherwise you can follow along on another device. Do join in the responses and hymns as you normally would.
- If there is problem with the Livestream technology, don't worry! We will record all our services and make them available as soon as possible after.
- You can contribute as part of the offertory by giving online via www.cathedral.org.au/donate

- To access the Zoom meetings/gatherings just click the links around the time the session is to begin (9.15 and 11.15am)

Opening for Sunday Worship - Sunday 28th June
Information regarding the re-commencement of Public Sunday Worship was sent to those on our congregational roll yesterday. If you are a regular member of the Cathedral Congregation and didn't receive the email, please contact the Cathedral Office. Due to the limited numbers of how many people can attend worship at one time, members of our congregational roll will be given first priority to book seats to attend. Any remaining seats will be advised in this Weekly Email for those would like to book. Please keep and eye on your inbox every Friday afternoon!

Annual General Meeting
The 2020 Annual General Meeting will be held on Sunday 28 June at 11am. An electronic copy of the Annual Report is available to view online here. Hard copies will be available in the Cathedral for when you next attend. In compliance with the health advice of the State of Victoria at the time of this edition’s publication, only fifty people may be in attendance in the Cathedral. To enable the full participation of all of our members, the AGM will be streamed live to our YouTube page, accessible via a private link which will be distributed closer to the time.
As usual we would like to invite Electoral Roll Members to submit their questions to the meeting in advance. This can be done in writing to welcome@stpaulscathedral.org.au. The deadline for question submissions is 25 June.

Planned Giving 2020/2021
It is that season of the year when we think about planned giving for the next 12 months. Envelopes for 2020/2021 will be available for collection as soon as services resume. Please let Dorothea know (derowse1@bigpond.com) if you will be requiring a box. I would, however, urge everyone who is currently taking envelopes to think again about setting up a direct debit on your Bank account or Credit card. You have absolute control; and it does ensure a regular flow of money to the Cathedral. Please also give prayer and thought to increasing the amount you have been giving. Once Federal financial support such as JobKeeper is phased out Cathedral finances will be very vulnerable indeed.
