The Anglican Church Women’s (ACW) annual Quiet Day has some big plans.

It will be held Wednesday, Sept. 9 at St. Mary’s Anglican Church in Miramichi.

Jill Stewart, past president of the diocesan ACW, is one of the organizers, and she is busy preparing a day-long auction of sorts to raise money for Farraline Place.

Eva Morton has been appointed chaplain of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital, Fredericton, for a one-year term commencing Oct. 1.

The Rev. Rob Salloum has been appointed rector in the Parish of Douglas and Nashwaaksis, effective Nov. 29. He leaves the Parish of the Six Saints in the Moncton area.

God willing, Archbishop David intends to ordain deacons Rick Cunningham, Dr. J. F., Rob Pitman and Virginia (Ginny) Wilmhoff to the priesthood and Ellen Kelly, Samuel Landry and Tyler Joseph McKenna to the (transitional) diaconate. 

Clergy, postulants, ministry students and layreaders are invited to vest and process - please RSVP here.

A light reception at Cathedral Memorial Hall will follow the service.

All are welcome to attend and join the celebration. The service will be livestreamed for those unable to attend.

Trinity Anglican Church in the Parish of Sussex will hold its annual online auction Oct. 26-30. 

Parish donations will be listed for bidding, and the community is always very generous with their bids. All funds raised go back to the community through various charities.

Today's eNews is the last of the summer schedule. The regular, weekly schedule returns next week. 

A 55-year-old man who was born on May 5, had been married 5 years, had 5 children, and made $55,555.55 a year. Of course, his lucky number was 5.

The man receives a phone call from a friend who informs him that a horse named Lucky 5 will be running in the fifth race at the local track that evening.

Excitedly, the man withdraws $5,555 cash from his bank account, goes to the races and bets on Lucky 5.

Sure enough, the horse comes in fifth.
