Rev Alfred Reid, Diocesan Bishop of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, who was also rector at St. Jude's between 1971 and 1978. Co-celebrants at the service will be the Rt. Rev. Abdullah and Achdeacon Leon Golding, rector of Kingston Parish Church and himself a former rector of St. Jude's who served from 1990 to 2002.
