% Thank you, Canon Wallace Marsh! As is customary for clergy when leaving a parish, we will be collecting gifts from the congregation in gratitude for the service Canon Wallace Marsh has provided to the community. This gift is known in the Anglican tradition as a “purse.” If you would like to contribute to Wallace’s “purse,” please send a check to the Cathedral, made out to Wallace Marsh; they will be delivered to him directly.
