A Letter from the Online Communications Coordinator (Rector’s Letter for 6/14)

Bill’s 13th Anniversary of Ordination to the Diaconate (Rector’s Letter for 6/07)

Dear Redeemer Family:I give praise to the Lord Jesus Christ today, as I celebrate the 13th anniversary of my ordination to the Diaconate (2008).

I think it is important to note here as an FYI, that some in the Anglican Tradition, like our own Jeanne Higgins, are called to…
