On Rogation Sunday last week, I preached in the lovely
St Martins in the Woods church in Shediac, NB.
The Archdeacon, Ven Richard McConnell,
led a very lovely and moving service, with a good choir.
I sat in the chancel, and took a picture of the church,
with cousin Ted in the second pew.
I preached about how we must remember
the fallen in WWI, and about Rogation Sunday.
I wanted a picture of Sharon Conners
who is a lay reader, and church administrator.
On the way to the church hall, Ted took a picture of Cory Eaton
who was 4 years old when the Great War for Civilization began in 1914.
After the service, at the free hearty lunch, the congregation
and the Archdeacon on the left, presented Cory with
a birthday cake to celebrate her hundred and fourth birthday!
I signed copies of The Gunner for quite a few parishioners,
giving as usual 50% of the proceeds to the church.
