Canada Day: My First Day
Today marks not only Canada Day but my first day in the parish as Priest and Rector. I went over to the church and had Morning Prayer, reading about Jonathan and his military exploits and craftiness and the conversion of Saul on the road to Damascus.
After messing around with files and searching out the lay of the church I returned home to get over to the Canada Day Kids Parade.
It's difficult to say but I imagine that there must have been 500 people around and more over time. The mayor, David Morgan, said to me that over 3000 people would be in and out celebrating this day with us here in Florenceville. It was particularly special for Sherry and I too see so many different cultural backgrounds represented. McCain Foods has quite a datacenter where many East Asians work.
