Celebrating Confirmation & Reception in the Parish of the Valley: on Sunday, September 28th, the Rt. Rev. Dr. John Chapman, retired Bishop of Ottawa, will join our parish to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation and to formally Receive members into our worldwide Anglican Communion.
There will be one parish-wide service at 10am on Sunday, September 28th, held in Holy Trinity Pembroke. Five adult members from across the Parish of the Valley will be confirmed by Bishop John, and several others will be received.
There will be a parish-wide massed choir for this service (please bring your local choir robes) and a special time of fellowship will follow the liturgy in the church hall.
All members of the Parish of the Valley are invited to come together for this special parish-wide celebration, and also to wear orange, as we anticipate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
This will be the only service in the Parish of the Valley on this day.
