New Canon Appointed

NEW CANON APPOINTED

Friends,

After consulting with the Archdeacons and with Diocesan Council, I am pleased to announce that I have appointed The Rev. Jenny Replogle as Canon for Lay-Led Parishes and Parishes-in-Transition.   This is a two-year appointment and a bit of an experiment to see how we can better support and serve the increasing number of parishes who do not have permanent clergy and/or who are going through major transitions.   

Jenny comes to us from the Diocese of Chicago and has extensive training and background in congregational development. Jenny sees the heart of her ministry as enabling people to live fully into who God created them to be.  Jenny is passionate about working with individuals and communities as they discern how God is calling them in their own unique ministries, bringing the processes and work of our Church in line with the faith and values we profess, keeping our baptismal vows to seek and serve Christ in all persons, and holding the dignity of every human being at the center of our work. 

Jenny will be moving to Victoria with her husband, Jonathan who has just been appointed Dean.  She will begin in her ministry with us on September 1, 2024.  Please keep Jenny and her family in your prayers as they prepare to make this transition.

The Right Rev. Anna Greenwood-Lee
