Celebration

Christ Church Cathedral in Ottawa held a celebration of full communion in February. Anglican Bishop Peter Coffin and Lutheran Bishop Michael Pryse led worship. At the diocese of Ottawa’s synod last October, Rev. Barton Beglo, dean of the Ottawa/St. Lawrence Conference, Eastern Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada, noted that full communion has “brought down walls and opened new doors.” He added that in July, during the Eastern Synod’s meeting in Ottawa, Lutheran pastors will be ordained at the Anglican cathedral.
