An Important Message from the SEC for Earth Day...

https://www.montreal.anglican.ca/stewardshipoftheenvironment

“Today is Earth Day! Let us celebrate this day by scanning the horizons and preparing ourselves for action!

What next step will you soon be able to take to electrify anything that currently operates on fossil fuels (heating or transport), that is made with fossil fuels (most plastics) or that is not easily recycled? (Think of this as an individual and as a congregation).

The Stewardship of the Environment Committee of the Diocese of Montréal is working closely with researchers and the Green Churches Network (www.greenchurches.ca) to provide practical guidance for congregations and members on deep retrofits that will make church buildings both carbon neutral and financially sustainable.

This Earth Day, please contact us at sec@montreal.anglican.ca to find out how we can help you continue to improve your carbon footprint and save money."

Thy Kingdom Come / 10 Days of Prayer for the Renewal of the Diocese

People around the world are rising to the challenge of praying every day for 10 days between Ascension and Pentecost, May 13-22. 2021. Let’s join them, with a particular focus on our life and ministry as the Diocese of Montreal.

Learn about Thy Kingdom Come International

COVID-19 has been a stress-test for faith communities the world over. We know that we will never be able to go back to the way things were. We also know that we serve an awesome God whose plans and purposes continue to unfold in God’s world. This is a time for us to root ourselves in the power of God’s grace and cry out for life as we face the future.

Praying every day for 10 days is as easy as 1 -2 -3…

1. Download the TKC Prayer Journal (version française) Find some time every day to read, journal and reflect individually

2. Check-out the Diocesan Prayer Calendar with prayer themes and live links (as of May 13)

3. Join us on Zoom to pray, meditate and share your thoughts and reflections (daily at 7pm EST) unless otherwise indicated)
