Were it not for parish priests, two young people in our diocese might not be headed for the Holy Land.

Hailey Colwell (Parish of Coldbrook-St. Mary) and Chase McLean (Parish of Wicklow Wilmot Peel & Aberdeen) credit the Rev. Canon Greg McMullin and the Rev. Harold Boomer with alerting them to a national program for youths 20-26 to join the ultimate pilgrimage for Christians.

The Rev. Caleb Twinamatsiko has been appointed regional dean of the Archdeaconry of St. Andrews, effective for a three-year period to Jan. 31, 2026.

Parish development officer and licenced evangelist Shawn Branch has been appointed the bishop’s liaison to the Archdeaconry of Woodstock, effective immediately. This role is in lieu of the appointment of a territorial archdeacon at this time.

Combined 160th Anniversary Celebration of having a Holy Trinity Church in the Hammond River area and 100th Anniversary Celebration of the current Holy Trinity building 

The original Holy Trinity Church built in 1863 in the Hammond River area was destroyed by fire in 1920 and rebuilt in a location closer to the river. The current Holy Trinity Church was then consecrated in January 1923.

To celebrate the 160th and 100th Anniversaries Archbishop David Edwards will be visiting to commemorate the occasion followed by a reception in the church hall.  All are invited! Bring a friend! 

Walk, volunteer or support a walker to help the homeless and hurting in New Brunswick.  Check out this national fundraiser and/or the location nearest you at https://cnoy.org/

Join friends from across the diocese during Lent as we read and reflect on Paula Gooder's "Let Me Go There: The Spirit of Lent". In her book, Gooder offers a daily reflection and reading for each day of Lent helping readers to dive deeper into the meaning and significance of the season.

The Bishop's Office will host an online gathering for anyone wishing to take part in sharing their reflections and questions from the readings. If you'd like to join the online gatherings, please click the Register Now button. The online gatherings will be hosted on Mondays at either 12noon or 7PM (February 27 - April 3).

Copies of the book can be purchased ($18/book + shipping) through the Bishop's Office by contacting Cheryl Jacobs or purchase an ePub copy here.
