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. Our strength! Our challenge! Our ministry! The Bishops of the Council of the North believe that their purpose is, under God, to equip one another in their mission to enormous and thinly populated dioceses; The Council of the North is a grouping of financially assisted dioceses, which are to offer mutual encouragement and pastoral care, hope to the oppressed, and chal- supported through grants by General Synod. There are 9 dioceses, the Anglican lenge to the complacent. In all they do, they strive to be a sign of the Kingdom Parishes of the Central Interior and the Archdeaconry of Labrador. -

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. -
