Celebrating a Century of Witness
In the Diocese of Algoma, our partnerships with United Church congregations are woven into the fabric of many communities. We share sacred spaces, worship side by side, support one another’s outreach efforts, and build enduring relationships of trust and goodwill. These local, often quiet collaborations are the true heartbeat of ecumenism. As we mark this significant day, I invite our Algoma family to consider three ways we can honour this centennial moment.
With Gratitude and Hope: Welcoming Bishop Rod BrantFrancis
On May 27, Archbishop Anne Germond presided at the consecration of the Rt. Rev. Rod BrantFrancis as Bishop of Moosonee. In this reflection, +Anne gives thanks for a community she has come to love deeply, honours the leaders who helped guide Moosonee through a decade of transition, and celebrates this new beginning for a resilient and faithful Church in the North.
Carried Away by Wind and Flame — A Reflection
In her May column for the Anglican Journal, +Anne Germond reflects on the mystery of Pentecost and the surprising ways the Spirit carries us—sometimes gently, sometimes with force—into new seasons of life and ministry. As Algoma continues to share its bishop with the wider Church, this reflection offers a timely and personal meditation on movement, courage, and trust.
Thy Kingdom Come Reflections
As we continue our 11-day journey of global prayer, Archbishop Anne Germond shares a daily reflection from the Thy Kingdom Come Prayer Journal, offering insight and inspiration from voices across the worldwide Church. Each reflection invites us to pray intentionally for five people to come to know the love of Christ. Follow along each day and join this worldwide wave of prayer.
The Diocese of Algoma
Our diocesan mission is: ‘To share in the gathering work of Christ so that His newness of life overflows into our hearts, homes, churches, and community’.
This site is intended to help us in the pursuit of our mission, but it is a work in progress. We hope that you will find all the essential information required to make contact with one of our churches or clergy, and that you will return to visit the site soon. Better yet, we hope you will visit us in person!
