In Canada St. Luke's Anglican marks its first service in new chapel

St. Luke’s is one of 30 parishes in the Anglican Network in Canada which averages a Sunday attendance of around 3,500 to date. It was established in 2005 to commit to the foundational principles and historic standards of the Anglican tradition. Two years later, however, the network announced it would provide episcopal oversight for Canadian Anglicans and parishes that no longer had a home in the Anglican Church.

Attending this inaugural service was the church’s bishop, the Right Reverend Donald Harvey. He said he was pleased the congregation now has a home and praised them for maintaining a robust membership.

“It’s one of the jewels in our crown,” said Bishop Harvey. “Now the challenge is to go out into the community and bring souls to Christ.”
