Keep us Good Lord under the shadow of your mercy in this time of uncertainty and distress. Sustain and support the anxious and fearful and lift up all who suffer, that we may rejoice in your comfort knowing that nothing can separate us from your love. This we pray in your name.
Amen.
Our magnificent three manual, tracker-action organ was installed in the chancel of the church in the spring of 1982 and dedicated to the Glory of God and in memory of those who died in the First World War and the Second World War.
The organ, built by the Karl Wilhelm Company of Mont St. Hilaire, Quebec, has a classical continental design. The case is made of white oak and the pipe shades are of carved butternut. Voiced in the classic French style, its 36 stops and 50 ranks are capable of interpreting a wide variety of organ literature.
Installation required considerable changes to the chancel including moving the altar forward and arranging choir seating to either side. These renovations prompted the design and production of our award-winning Benedicite Kneelers, done in needlepoint by a dedicated group of church members.
This past Sunday we gathered with full hearts to celebrate and give thanks for the ministry of Rev. Stephen Drakeford. It was a beautiful farewell—filled with stories, laughter, a few tears, and deep gratitude for all that Stephen has shared with our parish family.
We send him off with our prayers and blessings for the journey ahead. Thank you, Stephen, for your faithfulness, kindness, and the many ways you have enriched our community. You will be deeply missed and always held in love. ... See MoreSee Less
