On 16 March 2014, our own
Rev. David Lilly of Alberta, Canada, will be receiving a service pin from the
Royal Canadian Legion for his ministry as a branch chaplain in Alberta. This is
in recognition of one year of service with the RCL. At the AGM in November, he
was unanimously re-elected for year two of his ministry with this veterans’
organization which is a great honour. Presently, he is working on putting
together a church service for the annual Metis gathering at Big Valley. He has done this for the past five
years. They use an Anglican
liturgy based on the 1928 BCP. The church services also continue on a monthly
basis at Stettler. Rev. Lilly met
with Bishop Garth Neel in Regina back in December and at that time renewed his
commitment to serving with the AOC in Canada. We are assured of Rev. Lilly's
continued prayers both for our churches in North America and around the world.
May the Lord’s hand of blessing continue to be with our AOC family in the
United States, Canada and around the globe.
We congratulate the Rev.
Lilly on this continuing honour.
