As of January 1st, 2026, Rev. Elizabeth Brown will serve as the Pastoral Charge Supervisor of St. Andrew’s United Church Sudbury.  A Pastoral Charge Supervisor is appointed by the Regional Council to ensure the ongoing administrative and worship life of a community of faith where there is no serving minister.

Rev. Rob Smith will fill in between January 16 to 31 when Rev. Brown will be on holiday.

Rev. Brown will lead worship February 8 and will also be in attendance at the Council of the Whole meeting that follows. Sunday April 12, Rev. Brown will also be at St. Andrew’s United Church Sudbury for the annual meetings of the Church and Place.

 

 

UPCOMING WORSHIP SERVICES
Sunday January 4 – St. Andrew’s will worship and share in communion at the Church of the Epiphany at 10:30 am, followed by a pot-luck lunch with our Anglican neighbours. Bring a dish and enjoy some great company.

Sunday January 11 – Debby and Graham Laporte will lead the service at St. Andrew’s.

The Worship Planning Team has begun arranging pulpit supply for the remaining Sundays in January and the
following several months.

Musical leadership will be offered by Graham Laporte, Tracey LeGrand and Ralph McIntosh on a rotating basis.

PASTORAL CARE
The Contingency Team is working with Ministry & Personnel to arrange for ongoing pastoral care coverage in the new year. If anyone is in need of a pastoral care visit or becomes aware of an illness or bereavement within our church family, please contact Bev Chapman and she will connect you with the appropriate person.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact a member of the Contingency Planning Team (Sylvia Carscadden, Debby Laporte, Ralph McIntosh, Anne Pile)

SEARCH FOR A NEW MINISTER
We heard at the Council of the Whole meeting on December 7 that the Search Team is continuing to look for our next minister. Since then, the Contingency Team has been working together with Personnel Minister Rev. Rob Smith at Canadian Shield Regional Council and the Worship Planning Team regarding our next steps.
