Retirement Celebration

The curse of our age is endless change. The churn is continuous. Keeping up tiresome. Perhaps the only way to make it palatable is to find a way to celebrate what was and navigate toward the new. We’ve planned that celebration and you are invited.

The change is for someone we know and love. Jamie Howison – priest, friend, mentor, guide and lodestar of saint benedict’s table for almost 20 years. He’s retiring. We plan to leaven the sadness of that farewell by gathering, remembering and sending forth with our blessing. Will you join us?

There are two parts to this:

Sunday, September 10 a celebration will take place during the service of Holy Eucharist at the usual time of 7 pm at All Saints. Come to the table once again as we are served by and bless the retirement of Jamie Howison as Priest of the sbt community, after close to 20 years in ministry with this community.

Saturday, September 9 is a come-and-go event at the St. Norbert Arts Centre. Between 7 - 10 there will be music, a presentation, drinks and a relaxed venue in which to engage with Jamie and usher him in to what is yet to be. The cost is $20 per person but if that’s too steep for your budget you are welcome regardless (speak with Sarah beforehand).

Tickets must be reserved and don’t delay since there is limited capacity at the venue. THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!

*Please note:

  • This is a come-and-go event, with formal presentations scheduled to begin at approximately 7:45pm.

  • The venue is primarily outdoors (moving indoors in case of rain), so please plan accordingly.

  • Venue is fully accessible.

  • Free parking onsite. If transportation is needed, please let Sarah know by replying to this message.
