The General Synod of the Anglican Church of Canada meets this week in Halifax. It is also the 300th Anniversary of the first Anglican Service in North America – at Fort Anne in 1710. Please pray for the General Synod and especially for the unity of the Anglican Communion. As a Parish we have endorsed the Anglican Communion Covenant, promoted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, as a mechanism for achieving the unity of the Communion. May it not be rejected. – Fr. Curry
