St. Aidan Day is Sunday, Sept. 12th. We celebrate the Feast Day of our patron saint. There will be one service at 10:30 AM followed by a potluck lunch.  

The Annual Picnic was held Aug. 22nd in Wakamow Park and was a success, with a good turnout. There was gathering music and a full eucharist with a sermon. A potluck lunch followed, with Father Allen barbecuing hotdogs. The weather was beautiful. 

Nicholas Doerksen, son of Rev. Allen and Rev. Denise, is in Zambia as a volunteer teacher for several months. This initiative is a long time in the making and is made possible by the Christian organization MCC ( Mennonite Central Committee). For all such ventures support is needed, and for any of those who would wish to hear more about what Nick will be doing in Zambia, ask his parents. He made a presentation Sunday, June 13th. He left the country for Zambia in mid August.

General Synod, the triannual national meeting of the Anglican Church, was held in Nova Scotia in early June. Father Allen is one of six delegates from our diocese. He was away from the parish from May 31st to June 13th. We had an informational evening at the church on Tuesday, May 25th at 7:30. Fr. Allen gave an outline of some of the bigger issues up for discussion and there was time for questions and discussion. 14 parishioners attended. If you would like more information  please visit the General Synod Info section of the National Website at www.anglican.ca/gs2010/
