Retirement Celebration
Additional tickets have just been released for purchase, so if you’d like to attend you can place an order now!
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?
This is the first of a two-part event.
Saturday, September 9 will be 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.
An additional celebration will take place Sunday, September 10 during the service of Holy Eucharist at the usual time of 7 pm at All Saints we are releasing our shepherd as we gather once again for worship, but for the last time under Jamie’s leadership. Tickets are not required for the Sunday evening event.
