General Synod 2007 Minutes
Evensong A choral evensong concluded the session. Thursday, June 21, 2007 Joint Anglican / Lutheran Day Anglicans and Lutherans were welcomed to the Winnipeg Convention Centre by the Rev. Dr. Richard Leggett . The theme for the day was ‘Water’ – the water of baptism and issues relating to water in today’s world. Everyone participated in the Celebration of the Eucharist and combined table groups discussed what they knew, or didn’t know, about each other’s churches. The theme speaker was Dr. Sallie McFague, Distinguished Theologian in Residence at the Vancouver School of Theology, well known as an eco-theologian and activist in the movement to “green” the Church. National Aboriginal Day This “Day” was celebrated by nine Canadian church organizations commemorating the 20th Anniversary of the signing of the 1987 ecumenical statement entitled “A New Covenant”. At a ceremony held during the Joint Anglican / Lutheran Meeting, Church leaders (including Archbishop Andrew Hutchison, Evangelical Lutheran Bishop Raymond Schultz and Roman Catholic Archbishop James Weisgerber) renewed their commitment to the Covenant in support of aboriginal peoples’ continuing struggle for justice and self-determination. In Memoriam – Mr. Joseph Harvey The Primate advised that Mr. Joseph Harvey, an exhibitor at General Synod from Split Lake in the Diocese of Keewatin, had died suddenly in a Winnipeg Hospital at 12.15 p.m. today. Synod members observed one minute of silence in his memory and a prayer was offered for his life and service. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. Welcome to Partners The Rt. Rev. Patrick Mwachiko The Director of Partnerships, Dr. -
