Please save the date to join the Jacksonville Federal Court Bar Association on Thursday, November 11, from noon – 1:30 pm, at the River Club for our annual Spirit of Giving Luncheon. The luncheon will include honoring federal practitioners within our community who have gone above and beyond in providing service to those in need. The luncheon will be held at the River Club and is free for members and $30 for non-members. Registration open.

We are pleased to announce that this year’s Spirit of Giving Speaker is the Very Rev. Kate Morehead Carroll, Dean of St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral, Jacksonville, FL. Raised Hindu and inspired by religions of the world, Dean Kate has been an Episcopal priest for more than 25 years. In 2009 she was called to be the tenth Dean of St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral, and the first woman to be called as Dean of a Cathedral in the Southeastern United States. Kate’s leadership and vision have led to the creation of the Cathedral District, and exciting plans for the transformation of Jacksonville’s urban core with over $44 million invested in the development of multi-income housing, walkable neighborhoods, parks, recreational venues, and retail space that will provide all the elements needed for a thriving downtown neighborhood. In addition to the remarks from Dean Kate, the Court will present “Spirit of Giving” awards to lawyers who have gone above and beyond in providing service to those in need. The luncheon will be held at the River Club and is free for members and $30 for non-members. Registration will end close of business, Friday, December 5, 2025.
