Strengths: One of the largest parishes in the dioceses, with many (sometimes untapped) resources : people, finances, buildings. Good outreach to local community. Breadth of worship styles with home-grown Peter's Voice contemporary music.
Challenges: History of being oppositional to bishop/diocese; current bishop may be able to rebuild trust. Small vocal & visible minority angry at TEC is pulling the strings. Fired first interim. Uses lack of money as a smokescreen.

Part Time
Community: Urban

Housing:
Budget: $80000
Communicants: 228
Avg Sun Attendance: 50
Church School: --(c) --(a) --(t)
Liturgical Style: Anglo-Catholic/Rite II/Traditional
Status: Receiving names
Strengths: St. Katherine's is an historically African-American congregation in an urban neighborhood in flux. A nearby new subway station provides easy access to Johns Hopkins Hospital and trains to DC, so there are early signs of gentrification. The congregation is deeply connected to the Black political community in the city, going back to the days when Thurgood Marshall worshiped there. The changing configuration of the city makes for a uniques opportunity in urban ministry.
Challenges: The congregation is aging and currently consists of commuters from the suburbs. The main challenge will be to reconnect with the neighborhood, which will involve serious demographic study. The building is in need of some updating and repair.
Comments: St. Katherine's has been in search for almost five years. Though their liturgy is "Afro-Catholic," they have often been well served by Anglo clergy, and are open to that possibility at this time.
