Today, after 45 years of ordained ministry, his passion for God and the Church remains undimmed. As he heads towards retirement at the end of November, Bishop Fenty, 68, has no regrets about the path he has followed from an early age. “I’m convinced that God called me to ordained ministry and I would do it all over again,” he says. “There is no other vocation I would choose than a priest of the Church and now a bishop. It’s something I enjoy getting up to do every single day, in its good moments and not so good moments.” After attending Codrington Col- lege in Barbados, he was ordained a priest in 1975 and served in three parishes there, as well as being a chaplain to the University of the West Indies. From 1980-82, he at- tended Huron College in London, Ont., earning a Master of Divinity degree. He ministered in Barbados until 1992, then answered a call to be the rector of St. Lawrence, LaSalle in the Diocese of Montreal, moving there with his wife Angela and two young children.

The congregation answered with an emphatic “Yes!” It was one of many delightful and surprising moments in the two-hour service, which began and ended with songs written by rock groups The Who and U2. Bishop Asbil, wearing his mitre and vestments for the first time, asked the question from the chan- cel steps just before the exchange of the Peace. He was referring to the song “Michael Row the Boat Ashore,” the famous spiritual that describes St. Michael the Archangel rowing across the River Jordan to Bishop Andrew Asbil (left) and Archbishop Colin Johnson walk down the aisle after the consecration service.
