A New Chaplain for the ACW

On September 28 it was announced that Bishop John Stephens appointed the Reverend Miranda Sutherland, Vicar of St. Oswald’s, Port Kells and Vicar of Holy Spirit, Whonnock as Chaplain to the diocesan Anglican Church Women (ACW).

ACW President, Kelly Bowman had this to say about the appointment:

“I am delighted to have the Rev. Miranda Sutherland on board as ACW Chaplain for our diocese.  I am looking forward to her support and spiritual teachings.  I am positive that we will learn from each other since we are both new and it is going to be a wonderful experience ahead."

The Reverend Sutherland contributed these words:

"I am happy and honoured to be the new Chaplain of the Anglican Church Women (ACW) of the diocese and I look forward to providing spiritual guidance and presence at this time. I also look forward to assisting President Kelly Bowman and the board, in sharing about goals and objectives of this great ministry, with the hope that more parishes will be encouraged to establish ACW groups as one of their ministries to the service of God"
