The Parish of St. Timothy, Rigolet: Information |
Rector: The Reverend Gail Thoms-Williams |
The Parish of St. Timothy, Rigolet, Labrador is in a small Northern community of approximately 310 people, 280 being Anglican. This is the only Anglican parish in the new land of Nunatsiavut. This new land claim has given the Inuit people of Northern Labrador their own Government. It was and is a great day for the people of the past, present and future. At the moment, due to financial strain, the Parish of St. Timothy's has a part-time priest. However, with the commitment of two Lay Readers, a dedicated vestry, Sunday readers, Bible study group of 10, and a youth group, we work together to ensure that this parish will grow to what God wants us to be. From September to January we have a Sunday School of 8 to 15 kids, after the days begin to get longer, the list of kids gets shorter, so usually Sunday school is stopped in late February. In early June the youth group and Sunday school come together for a barbeque and games to celebrate the past year. We are indeed blessed by our faithful congregation. |
