Congratulations Clyde and Rowena Hapwood: many years serving God!

March 15, 2019 · by anglicanlifenl

article by The Rev’d Fred Marshall—the full article will be in the April issue of Anglican Life!

On September 7th 1958 Clyde Hapgood began his ministry as a lay reader in the Parish of St. Andrew’s, Sunnyside. On January 27th, 2019 at St. Paul’s Church in Come By Chance the parish celebrated the Conversion of Saint Paul, their patron saint, with Bishop Geoff presiding.  At this service Bishop Geoff presented Clyde with a certificate recognizing his 60 years of faithful and dedicated service.

Clyde continues faithfully and dutifully in answering his call as a lay reader. But that is not the end of the story. Clyde has a partner in ministry, his wife Rowena, who has been an organist for sixty-three years. Imagine, a couple with over 120 years of combined ministry.

March 12, 2019 · by anglicanlifenl

These suggestions come to us from the Anglican Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in St. John’s. While we are already into Lent, it is still worth having a look at these to see what you can do during this season of preparation for Easter:

ARCIC (III) Walking Together on the Way: Learning to Be the Church Local, Regional, Universal

March 6, 2019 · by anglicanlifenl

Submitted by The Rev’d Dr. Alex Faseruk

After centuries of living apart, the Anglican Communion and the Roman Catholic Church have been on a pilgrimage together since the historic visit of Archbishop Michael Ramsey to Pope Paul VI in March 1966. The establishment of the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC), now in its third major phase of work, ARCIC (III), grew out of that visit as a tangible expression of the joint commitment to walk together the path of ecclesial conversion and renewal so that, as traditions, we might grow together into the fullness of communion in Christ and the Spirit.

St. Nicholas Anglican Parish, under the leadership of the Right Rev’d Cyrus Pitman, and Holy Trinity RC Parish, under the leadership of its Pastor, Father Paul Lundrigan, along with the Faculty of Theology, Queen’s College, Dr. Rick Singleton (Provost), the Rev’d Canon David Bell (Dean of Theology), Dr. Carmel Doyle and the Ven. Neil Kellett (the retired Chaplain) will offer a four-part series to help people become familiar with the Anglican and Roman efforts in promoting Christian unity.

Moderating the sessions will be the Rev’d Dr. Alex Faseruk, who comments, “When I was at Queen’s College and assisted at St. Nicholas, it was easy to see that the community of Torbay had a long and vibrant tradition of promoting interaction, understanding, and ecumenical efforts between Holy Trinity and St. Nicholas. We are hoping to build on these efforts to help spread the intended walking together far and wide beyond the parish boundaries.”

Christians of all denominations are invited to gather for these sessions that will help us better understand and appreciate their own roots, each other’s roots, and consider ways to work/walk together. The sessions will be:

Sunday, March 10 from 2:00 to 4:00 at Holy Trinity Church.
Sunday, March 31 from 2:00 to 4:00 at St. Nicholas Church.
Sunday, April 28 from 2:00 to 4:00 at Holy Trinity Church.
Sunday May 26 from 2:00 to 4:00 at St. Nicholas Church.

From the Parish of Forteau

March 1, 2019 · by anglicanlifenl

Anglican Life just received lots of news from the Parish of Forteau, and it will all be in the upcoming April issue of the paper. Meanwhile, to whet you appetite, here is a story about the good work that this parish has done to help those who are in need during our coldest part of the year:

The ACW of St. John the Evangelist, and that Ladies of Capstan Island Labrador, proudly display their project of last fall. These are the knitted goods which were delivered to The Gathering Place in anticipation of the cold winter. A member of the ACW, Lily Fowler, delivered the items.
