August 24, 2008 - Father James last Sunday at St.Barnabas
Please click here or go to Photo Gallery at left to see a slide show of The Quirks last Sunday with us at St. Barnabas. A beautiful service, with all of Father James' favourite hymns was followed by a delicious reception organized by Barbara Allatt and the many who baked and made sandwiches and provided food for us all to enjoy. Wardens, Louise Moses and Jennifer Madill, presented James and Marnie with a purse and gifts for themselves and their children, Madeleine, Flora and Harriet. In addition, a photo, taken by Brian Merrett was signed by all in attendance. We wish all the Quirks the very best in this new and exciting adventure. God bless and God speed, James. You will be very much missed.
August 3, 2008 - American Sunday
As always at St. Barnabas - traditions matter - The Canadian and American flags were carried into the church as we sang the anthems for both countries. We were also treated to a concert by The Lakeside Singers, a local group of talented vocalists who rehearse together throughout the year. Many of the members are also members of St. Barnabas Church. The homily was delivered by W. Page Dame, III, a member of St. Barnabas and a resident of North Hatley whose family have been a part of the fabric of North Hatley for many generations. Click Here for the text of Page's wonderful talk. Thank you to all who participated in our Sunday morning service with special thanks to the Lakeside Singers, Page Dame, and Janet Bennett who supervised the reception following the service. Thank you, too, to all who baked and made sandwiches.
