Lynne McNaughton — Mon, 01 Mar 2021 14:48:59 +0000

As we continue through the season of Lent and approach Holy Week and Easter, we have entered our second year of not being able to worship in person.

The diocesan office can seem like a black box. Things go in and things come out and no one is really sure what happens inside. I hope that we can start to change that. In the coming months I’m going to write a column called “The Office” to try and share what we’re up to.

When we used to gather in the vestry before worship, the altar party at St. Andrew’s would begin to pray by saying, “Go before us O Lord in the power of your Spirit…”.

There was a time when my diary would be full of meetings. Come to think of it, my diary is still full of meetings, but instead of meeting at the Church, in a person’s home or at a local coffee shop, meetings these days takes place online...usually by Zoom.

Margaret Sherwood — Mon, 01 Mar 2021 07:08:12 +0000

What can we learn from COVID? What has been painful? What has caused joy? Is there joy in COVID?? If we pause to reflex on our times we can think only of the negatives. The people we have lost, the jobs lost; the toll it has taken on our country and the world. Many people are stuck in this place.
