Message from Gay R., Ottawa ON

My vision for the Anglican Church of Canada for 2019 is the following:

  • our church will be in full communion with other denominations
  • our church will be open and affirming to all who enter our doors
  • our church (and ideally our worship) will be appealing to and attended by those not brought up in the church or from other countries
  • our church will actively work with other denominations and other faith traditions in building peace and taking social action; our church will be a recognized voice for social justice
  • we, the people, will focus on living the gospel rather than arguing about dogma and doctrine
  • our buildings will be rationalized so that we can focus on action rather than infrastructure

Vision 2019 welcomes a range of contributions to the "Tell us your story" project--from affirming to critical. Comments are monitored, however, to ensure that a respectful conversation can take place. We ask that you be relatively brief and that your language be respectful to others. You must also provide your name, place of residence (city or town is adequate) and parish.
