Back to School Blessings

On Sunday, September 2, the Rev. Aaron Parsall-Myler blessed the children (and their backpacks) of St. Saviour’s Mission in Wabamun, as they prepared to start a new school year. The adult members of the congregation were also delighted to receive a cross and a blessing. Submitted by Michelle Squance-Slade, People’s Warden
