8th and 9th October 2022

8th October was a well deserved 'day off', we caught up with washing and some blogging backlog.

 

9th October and we were off early: Estevan bound, and St Giles Church.

 

Bishop Helen and Sara drove in the Bishops car, whilst I drove Stephen Kennedy, we went via the local airport to add Stephen as a driver to the rental car.

 

Service 10am. A service of Thanksgiving, with a good congregation, Bishop Helen presiding and preaching, Venerable Rev Wilma Woods leading.

 

Rev Wilma has been the priest here for a number of years she also has Archdiaconal oversight over St Marys, Whitewood. (see later blog 11th October)

 

An evening in Estevan and a chance to watch the local 16-18AAA Hockey team, in action. Estevan Bears.

 

Unfortunately they lost 2-5 against Swift Current, but it was very enjoyable: if somewhat 'chilly' ringside!!
