The Parish of Bonne Bay North celebrated Thanksgiving this year with many thanks. The Rev’d Wilhelmena Green and many of the parishioners from both Rocky Harbour and Norris Point came together to prepare firewood for Marilyn Payne, who is a cancer patient in Rocky Harbour. Marilyn is the people’s warden at St. Matthew’s Church, and is now enduring chemo therapy.
Marilyn’s two sisters, Lucinda and Jackie, came and provided hot soup for those who were there to lend a hand.
This was a wonderful spiritual event, and we came together, working as disciples of Christ.
Marilyn is so grateful for the help she received!
