On January 26th, a service of the Holy Eucharist was held at Holy Spirit Church in Isle aux Morts, officiated at by The Rev’d Maryrose Colbourne and Deacon Annie Rose.

It was well attended by congregations from St. Augustine’s and Holy Spirit.

A side table for sacraments (also known as a credence table), crafted by Garland Huelin, and an altar copy of the Book of Alternative Services were dedicated to the memory of Percy Billard.

Percy was a big part of the Isle aux Morts community. He was a teacher who shaped many lives, a member of the town council, and a historian; he served multiple roles on the vestry and other committees.
He was a kind, patient, and caring man who touched the lives of all who knew him.
