– Presbytery Triennial Visit
(Pastoral Care and Oversight) at St. Mark’s at 7:00 p.m.
What
is a Presbytery Oversight Visit?
Oversight
visits are part of the Presbytery’s ministry to the Pastoral
Charges within its bounds. It is the Presbytery’s responsibility to
keep in touch with all Pastoral Charges, supporting in times of struggle
and celebrating and encouraging achievements. The United Church of
Canada is set up so that there is support and encouragement for all
Pastoral Charges and all ministry personnel in its care. One way this
is done is through regular Presbytery Oversight Visits. In this
presbytery, these visits are to happen every 3 years (triennial).
