I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever.  (Psalm 86:12, NRSV)

Grace to you and peace,

With a heart full of gratitude and thanksgiving to God, I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is a privilege to introduce myself as the new Acting Dean of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Trenton. As we embark on our ministry together, I eagerly anticipate the blessings God will bring in our shared journey. The people of Trinity Cathedral, along with the Diocese of New Jersey, possess a rich and cherished heritage, and I am grateful to serve as God’s shepherd among you.

As we look ahead, we anticipate the landmark celebration in 2030—marking 100 years as a Cathedral Church in this beloved diocese. Throughout these many years, Trinity Cathedral has served as the seat of the Diocesan Bishop, the Mother Church of the diocese, and most importantly a place of prayer and worship. My hope is to honor and continue this tradition as we journey together, envisioning the next century for our community. God remains present and active, and the Spirit continues to work among us. Let us remember the words of Scripture: “let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we not faint.” (Galatians 6:9, KJV)

I am excited to begin this new relationship and look forward to getting to know each of you as we strive to be the Church in today’s world. Please know that you remain in my prayers.

In Christ,

The Reverend Canon Terence Alexander Lee+, M.Div.
