contact us if you would like to learn more about our work
Diocesan partners share a commitment to each other's ministry. We benefit from sharing their own experiences, our successes and our struggles, and by learning from each other. We pray for each other and share resources where possible. The Diocesan Partnerships Committee is dedicated to strengthening the bonds between our two partners. Recently, we have been focusing on investing in the future leadership of our partners: in particular, we have done so by sponsoring a priest from Tanzania (Fr. Linus Buriani) to attend theological studies at McGill University. We meet monthly to discuss our goals and commitments.
Our members consist of: Fr. Andrew O'Donnell (Chair), Fr. Tyson Rosberg, Archdeacon Victor David Mbuyi, Sue Winn, Fr. Michael Robson, Angela Andrews, Emily Stuchbery, Raymond Noel, Fr. Ralph Leavitt

"The Diocese of Montreal has had a long term and mature relationship with the Diocese of Masasi in Tanzania, and the Territory of the People in central BC. These relationships have grown and developed through several different bishops over the years. As we have shared stories about our faith with each other, we have experienced a number of ups and downs in the life of the Church. Each relationship has greatly enriched each other and without a shadow of a doubt, both of our faiths are deeper and richer because of these ongoing relationships."
-The Rev Andy O’Donnell (Chair of Partnerships Committee)
