The last weekend before Christmas is traditionally one of the busiest times of the year, when the frenzy of planning family gatherings and shopping for gifts can reach fever pitch. But for a group in Victoria, B.C., this coming Dec. 20 and 21 will involve a different type of activity.
Through its new Request-for-Proposals (RFP) process, the Anglican Foundation of Canada will fund five innovative projects aimed at bolstering youth leadership within the Anglican Church of Canada.
The Rev. Sue-Ann Ward of Grace Anglican Church in Waterdown, Ont., wants to remind her community that Christmas isn’t really about Santa filling stockings or presents under the tree. “Christmas is about God coming into the world to be among us, to guide us, ultimately to sacrifice himself for us,” she said.
