RE: Stage 3 Alberta "Re-Opening": A Letter from Archbishop Greg

On June 28, Archbishop Greg Kerr-Wilson of the Diocese of Calgary, wrote this letter in anticipation of the easing of public health protocols on July 1.  The letter -- a PDF file -- may be found at THIS LINK.

Please note that for July, pre-recorded services for each Sunday will continue, and the Parish will have outdoor services for July 11 and 25.  As far as is known, there will be music, but no congregational singing.  Rev. Robert is on vacation in August; no services have yet been planned for this period.  It is hoped that in-person, in-church services can resume in September.  Stay tuned!
