THURSDAY to SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14 to 16, 2002 IN HAMILTON

The Diocesan Synod for 2002 has begun and the coverage will be as "real-time" as possible. Please return to the site for ongoing reports and documentation.

Most importantly, please pray for the delegates to Synod. This is a time when all involved must open their hearts to the Spirit of God who calls the Anglican Church in the Diocese of Niagara to prophetically announce God's Word in our contemporary society!
