Welcome to the Anglican Parish of St George, Wakefield

Welcome from Archdeacon Godfrey Mawejje

I welcome you to “The Anglican Parish of St. George, Wakefield” church website.  We are an exciting, vibrant and growing congregation, which has nourished God’s people since 1904.

I am privileged to have been part of the team since 2000.  I trust that our website will be a means for us to build a good relationship with you and to keep you informed of what is happening, and how you can participate fully in the life of our church.  May God’s blessings be with you and in all that you do.

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing: it is the gift of God.”  – Ephesians 2:8

Good News

Welcome back to Church. Great News, we are once again enjoying coffee and fellowship after church in the church hall.   All are Welcome.  In person worship service & gatherings has resumed. All local and provincial health regulation orders in effect will be followed.   Masks are now optional.  Our regular Sunday worship service will still be available via live stream on Facebook.  Follow St Georges Wakefield Anglican Church. Hope to see everyone soon.

IN NEED OF A VISIT OR PRAYER?

If you are in the hospital, please let us know.   With the Privacy Health Information Act (PHIA) that is in effect, we have no way of knowing that you would like a visit, unless you tell us.    The Hospital will not call us unless you specifically ask them to do so.  This is also the reason that we hold people in our prayers silently and only use their names if they personally have given permission for us to do so.  This is not just a matter of law, but also one of respecting people’s privacy.    Please contact Mawejje or any member of Vestry, or have a family member advise if you are in need of prayers or a visit.

FRIDAY JAM NIGHT

Next Jam night will be on Friday, April 26th from 7:00 – 10:00 p.m. at the Church Hall. Everyone is welcome to attend. If you play an instrument, sing, or just want to come and have coffee/tea and listen, please come and join us. If you need further information, contact Perry at 204-407-8129.

Josephine Jolicoeur is hosting Sunday School the first Sunday of the month and Nadine Jolicoeur is hosting Sunday School the third Sunday of the month.
