Welcome to our August Priest in Charge ~ Rev. Ginger Solaqua

Dear All ~

I am very pleased to report that I met with the Search Committee’s recommendation to be our next August Priest in Charge.

I have called the Rev. Virginia (Ginger) Solaqua and she has joyously accepted the call to be the Priest in Charge . We have our August priest!

Ginger, her husband Anthony, and one year old daughter Lizzy will arrive at the end of July. She will celebrate the Eucharist and preach on Sunday August 2nd and will be with us through our last Sunday of the summer. Ginger is currently PIC for three congregations at St. John’s and St. Anne’s Episcopal churches in Lowell, Massachusetts. She has an impressive resume and is an experienced priest and preacher.

Please hold Ginger in your prayers as she will hold us in hers. As is so often the case, she was very taken with the Church and is thrilled about the prospect of being with us this August and inviting her extended family to visit and stay in the Rectory.

I would like to acknowledge and sincerely thank our Search Committee:
Ellen Avery-Chair
Tracy Wagoner
Liz Tong
Malcolm Gaines

They have worked diligently to advertise the position, interview six possible candidates and bring forward a wonderful choice who I am confident will be a great fit at our beloved Emmanuel Church.

Faithfully,

William Raymond
Senior Warden
