Welcome as we celebrate 150 years of Anglican Life Welcome to you all as we celebrate 150 years of Anglican Life in this parish. We particularly welcome and acknowledge
Victoria, our Bishop, as she leads us today in this service of celebration, baptism, confirmation and renewal. One hundred
and fifty years of glorifying God and growing his kingdom is a significant milestone. As we give thanks for the past it is
fitting that our focus today is on those new to the faith and the young committing themselves to a life of service. Today
we join with them in committing ourselves to our parish mission - INVITING people to meet Jesus, FORMING them to become like
him, SENDING people out to extend his kingdom and SERVING a broken world.
On this special day I would like
to bring to your attention our parish Ministry Internships. Designed to help form those gifted for leadership this 10 hour
per week commitment for a year is suitable for those exploring a ministry leadership vocation, students taking a gap year,
or parishioners of any age serious about discovering their purpose in life. There are brochures at the back of our churches.
Please see me if this interests you.
Celebrate and enjoy!
