The 70th Synod of the Anglican Diocese of Edmonton will take place on Oct. 23 and 24. Rev. Lisa, our People's Warden Joyce Sewell and our elected Parish Delegate Bonny Graham will attend on behalf of Immanuel.
We join in prayer for those who gather together and seek God's direction as they review the Strategic Plan "A Way Through the Wilderness" and formulate plans for the future direction of the Diocese.
Creator of life and possibility, who holds our past, present, and future in your loving hand, look with compassion upon your one great community of faithful people across every time and place, and especially at this time on the small corner of it which we know as the Anglican Diocese of Edmonton. As we gather together in Synod, grant us the eyes to see both the opportunities and the challenges that lie before us, as well as the courage to face them with clear insight and hopeful imagination. Inspire us again by the signs of the Holy Spirit springing forth among us, and show us in all things how to follow the Way of Jesus Christ our Lord; the one who lives, and reigns, and makes all things new. Amen.
