BISHOP’S PURSE – As is customary in the Anglican church, we are collecting a “purse” to express our gratitude to Bishop Logan for his years of dedicated ministry. Per CRA regulations, contributions to the purse are a personal gift to +Logan; a tax receipt will not be issued for any amount. Cheques must be written to “Logan McMenamie.” All cheques can be mailed to the synod office (Diocese of BC 900 Vancouver St, Victoria, BC V8V 3V7) and must be received before October 16, 2020.
At St. Columba's, we are taking a cash collection until October 4 if you don't wish to mail a cheque. Please drop cash off at the church office during office hours (Monday to Wednesday mornings) or give to Judy Fyles on Sunday.
