Syracuse rector is moving on but hopes her local food blog will continue


From Syracuse-

Grace Episcopal Church is losing its food-blogging rector, but the food blog itself may live on in some form.

“I’m working currently on an idea that will keep ‘Cookin’ in the ’Cuse’ alive, perhaps asking other folks to help curate and write those stories and perhaps edit from afar,” the Rev. Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows said. “I’m not quite sure how we’ll work that out but I’m hoping there will be a model that will sustain it.”

Baskerville-Burrows will give her last sermon as Grace rector on Sunday. She’s accepted a job as director of networking with the Episcopal diocese of Chicago. Besides her job as rector and her food blog, she served as the Episcopal chaplain at Syracuse University and was a community columnist for The Post-Standard.

The process to find a new rector, or head pastor, for Grace could take a year or more, said Nancy Radke, a member of the Grace church vestry or council. In the interim, clergy or sometimes lay people will fill in, she said.
