Not many people are fortunate enough to have “love” in their job descriptions, but deacons do, and Bishop Claude Miller believes we could use more of them in our diocese. At the moment we have three — the Rev. Francene (Fran) Bedell of Edmundston, the Rev. Constance Whittaker-Soulikias of Saint John, and the Rev. Joyce Perry of Fredericton. In the not too distant future we will have two more: Eleanor Dryden of the The Rev.

  • Council of the North Prayer Cycle
    Council of the North Prayer Cycle The Council of the North began in 1970 when the National Executive Council of the General Synod of the Anglican Church of Canada appointed a taskforce to consider the challenges and opportunities for ministry in the northern parts of Canada. The following year this taskforce was replaced with the Primate’s Task- force on the Church in the North. In 1973 this taskforce became the Primate’s Council on the North. By 1976 this body had evolved into the present Council of the North. The Council of the North is made up of all bishops of the assisted diocese. They administer the General Synod’s grants for northern mission. The council meets twice a year to consider the needs of the mission and ministry of the Church in the north. It reports to both the Council of General Synod and to the meeting of The shaded area highlights the geography of the Council General Synod. of the North. 85% of the land. 15 % of the people.

  • Be Ready in Season and out of Season. 2 Timothy 4:2 Welcome Welcome from the National Director
    TheSeasons July - October 2017 Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season. 2 Timothy 4:2 Welcome Welcome from the National Director ear friends, I love hearing and reading people’s D stories. Especially stories of how people have encountered God. Recently, at our spring regional retreats, our Evangelists shared their stories. There was a lot of vulnerability and trust as we gathered together and shared stories. These stories had similar themes - in the midst of brokenness, God met us and began transforming our lives. The ways in which God encounters us is powerful. These stories are similar to those of the people whom we are privileged to be walking alongside. Whether “down and out” or “up and out”, God continues to encounter the broken and lead them to wholeness and restoration. Each of our Evangelists share these journeys with people. This year, we have been blessed with opportunities to help equip even more people to carry on in that same journey. Through local and regional workshops, conferences and our Threshold School of Ministry, we have shared in the equipping of hundreds of individuals who are ready to walk alongside those in their communities. I want to thank everyone of you. Thank you for all that you do to help further the work of Threshold Ministries. Thank you for your prayers and financial support. Thank you for your commitment to our vision and ministry. I wish you, and those you love, a truly happy and blessed summer. Yours in Christ, The Seasons is available to view online or download.

Packer, editor Taking the Anglican Communion Seriously by Terry Buckle and Archie Pell published by Preface To The Series The Anglican Agenda series of publications aims to open up current ques- tions that call for thought, discussion, prayer and decision among members of the Anglican Church of Canada at this time. The series is sponsored by the Essentials movement, which seeks all-round renewal of life and strength in the Anglican Church, and its writers are Anglican Church personnel speaking out of their loyalty to the Church and their acute sense of its present needs. It is hoped that the series will spark deep personal reflection and group discussion within and between parishes, so that we all may be better prepared for the dif- ficult and demanding era into which, as it seems, our Church is now entering.
