On Sun. Jan. 4, 2015 St. Faith’s was delighted to have Bishop Melissa
Skelton celebrate Epiphany with us and preach and preside at both the 8:00am
and 10:00am Services.
The Bishop blessed our newly commissioned plaques recording the names of
those buried in our Memorial Garden in honour of those in whose memory we have
erected them:
The Lord be with you.
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right
to give our thanks and praise.
Blessed are you, gracious God, creator of heaven and earth;
we give you thanks and praise through Jesus Christ our Lord,
whose victorious rising from the dead
has given to us the hope of resurrection
and the promise of eternal life.
Grant your peace to all those whom we love,
but see no longer.
Let light perpetual shine upon them,
and in your loving wisdom and almighty power,
work in them the good purpose of your perfect will.
May their memory always be a blessing to us
and to all who seek to follow the way of Christ.
Blessed are you, O Holy One of Israel,
who gives life to all creation. Amen.
Following the 10:00am service Bishop Melissa enjoyed a famous St. Faith’s pot luck lunch. Parishioners engaged in discussion with the Bishop individually and as a group. Click HERE to listen to Bishop Melissa’s sermon: “Outsider Awe, Outsider Reverence, Outsider Homage”.
