-Pray for Lauren- After a five year remission, our dear Lauren (now 11), is in a battle with cancer once again. As she is now in hospital receiving treatments, Lauren and her family need our prayers. Heavenly and loving Father, we lift up your daughter, Lauren, in prayer today. We ask you to give her a real sense of your presence and peace. Envelop Lauren and her family in your love and comfort and give them the strength to fight this battle once again. In Jesus’ name we ask for healing, Lord. We thank you Father for your faithfulness and love and for all your sons and daughters who rally around Lauren now. In this and all things we put our trust in You, thankful that we can come to you with our prayers and praise. In your mercy, hear us Lord! In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Bishop David would like to thank all those who served on the 2017-2020 Diocesan Executive Council, all those who let their names stand for nomination this time and those who were elected. Especially in times like these, many helping hands are needed to serve the people in Northern Alberta. Your willingness to serve is greatly appreciated.... https://athdio.ca/news/diocesan-synod-2020

The Prorogation of Synod has been made by Bishop David and Diocesan Synod 2020 is complete. Many thanks to all Synod Delegates and all those who made Synod possible. A Zoom Synod is never ideal, but, with God's help, we did it.

Please hold Bishop Greenwood, Archdeacon Leer and all attending Diocesan Synod this morning, in prayer. This is our first ever online synod meeting and we pray that the technology works.
