The 64th session of the Synod of the Diocese of Kootenay 2021 opening worship was live streamed by YouTube Thursday evening, May 13, Ascension Day. The Rt. Reverend Lynne E. McNaughton, Bishop presided. The theme of the Synod was from Isaiah 43: 18, 19 “Behold, I am doing a new thing.”
By now, based on our demographic, most of our readers would have received the covid-19 vaccine. I have to say that psychologically I feel somewhat relieved: a stress has been lifted.
The HighWay has undergone a number of changes since the last Synod. The Publisher is the Rev. Dr. Lynne McNaughton who is also a columnist. The editor is John Lavender with editorial assistance from Micahel Lavender.
I’m writing this editorial just as the power went down, and just prior to watching on television, the storming of the capital in Washington DC. The fact I had been chasing wild turkeys out of our garden minutes before, found me trying to relax enough to complete The HighWay. So when the power went down, it gave me an opportunity to relax a bit during a time of high stress.
