The Anglican Parish of

Wicklow, Wilmot, Peel and Aberdeen

 
 
The parish covers northern Carleton County in the province of New Brunswick, Canada.  Our four “points” offer ministry to over 300 souls.  Our congregations function separately on the first few Sundays of the month, but come together for the last Sunday at 11 am for a “Parish Service” where the choir leads us in song and worship.


Our Vestry is made up of three delegates from each church, plus two wardens, a vestry clerk, a treasurer and the Rector as Chair. Each church has a few individuals who take care of the property, memorials and cemeteries. 


As you can see by the side bar we are quite and active set of churches with a great number of children, youth, middle-aged and those of mature years.  Come on by and join us for worship and fellowship.


You can find the latest Parish news in the Bulletins published on the blog section of my website.
