Anglicanism and Our Mission

Grace Anglican is a parish in the Territory of the People Anglican Church, a diocese of the Anglican Church of Canada. With St. John the Divine Anglican Church in Quesnel and The Parish Church of St. Michael and All Angels in Prince George, we form the Ministry Team of the Three Rivers in the Territory of the People.

Anglicans around the world are linked by a common history dating back beyond the separation of the Church of England from the church of Rome in 1534, to the Gregorian mission to England by Augustine of Canterbury in CE 597.

Branches of the Worldwide Anglican Communion ascribe to the Anglican 5 Marks of Mission:

  • To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom.
  • To teach, baptise and nurture believers.
  • To respond to human need by loving service.
  • To transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation.
  • To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth

At Grace we pursue the 5 Marks of Mission by living out our Mission Statement:

To be a loving and joyful community, witnessing and ministering to others by growing in the faith of Christ and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

The Second Sunday of Advent
DEC 4, 2023

What does the 2nd Sunday of Advent represent?
 
 
Today, the Second Sunday of Advent we light the second candle, which is the symbol of FAITH. The candle's name has its origins in the prophet Micah who prophesied Jesus would be born in Bethlehem. It is referred to as the Bethlehem Candle.


It’s almost Advent.  So what?
NOV 27, 2023

Advent is a season observed in most Christian denominations as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for both the celebration of the Nativity of Christ at Christmas and the return of Christ at the Second Coming. Advent is the beginning of the liturgical year in Western Christianity. The name was adopted from Latin adventus "coming; arrival", translating Greek parousia from the New Testament, originally referring to the Second Coming.

The season of Advent in the Christian calendar anticipates the "coming of Christ" from three different perspectives: the physical nativity in Bethlehem, the reception of Christ in the heart of the believer, and the eschatological Second Coming.

Practices associated with Advent include Advent calendars, lighting an Advent wreath, praying an Advent daily devotional, erecting a Christmas tree or a Chrismon tree, lighting a Christingle, as well as other ways of preparing for Christmas, such as setting up Christmas decorations, a custom that is sometimes done liturgically through a hanging of the greens ceremony.

George Westgate lead a delightful service of song and praise and blessing, ably accompanied by a chorus of barks, yips and woofs.  Each pet revelled in being personally blessed and given a tasty treat for good behaviour.  Watch the service here:
