An important update from the Chaplain, Rev. Giulianna Gray
I’ve just loved serving as the Episcopal and ELCA Chaplain at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit. I came here right after I finished seminary in 2008, and it has been a wonderful four a half years. Change is now in the air for me and my family, and for the Chapel of the Holy Spirit as well.
My husband, Peter, who also is an Episcopal Priest, has accepted a call to serve as Priest in Charge at the Episcopal Church of the Nativity in Greenwood, Mississippi. Peter, Joseph, and I will be moving from New Orleans to Greenwood in the end of February. In this region of the Mississippi Delta, there are several churches that do not have a pastor right now, and I am looking forward to discerning a new call to ministry in a new place as well.
My last official Sunday at the Chapel will be Sunday, February 17th, and my last day will sometime in that following week. While I will miss you very much, I’m looking forward to being with the community for the next several weeks to reflect on some of the good times we’ve had and to look together with hope toward the future.
Bishop Morris Thompson, Bishop of Louisiana, plans to appoint another Chaplain. Please pray that God will guide this process. Pray that a new person will be selected to faithfully lead the community at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, as well as work with all of you to spread the love of God to the campuses of Tulane and Loyola.
I invite you to be in touch with me if you would like to visit with me before my last day at the Chapel. And until my last day, things are continuing as usual!, so come on by an upcoming event, or touch base with me by email or phone at giuliannagray@gmail.com or at (504)866-7438.
Grace and Peace to each and every one of you,
Giulianna+
The Rev. Giulianna Cappelletti Gray, Chaplain and Priest in Charge

Though I am sometimes overwhelmed by the pressures before me, you are my companion and my guide, and it is you who helps me face the challenges ahead. Fill me with your peace, grant me clarity of mind, and help me to be an instrument of that peace to others who may be suffering today. In the Christ, I pray, Amen.
