There is good news. Some people – but not enough – are aware that the most award-winning (by far) publication in Canadian religious journalism is Gisele McNight’s NB Anglican.  Its April issue is a prime example of its success.  In addition to glimpses of goings-on in various parishes, there are major stories on the doings of the world president of the Mothers’ Union, on the Pennfield parish charity that makes a difference in the lives of poor Ugandan widows, and a beautiful story on the parishioners of the indefatigable parish of Hammond River, who package milkweed seeds for scattering to preserve the habitat of the monarch butterfly.  The whole NB Anglican has examples of well-doing for all.  It can reach you monthly in either (or both) of paper and digital formats.  Subscribe to both the national monthly and the NB Anglican at https://anglicanjournal.com/subscriptions/email-alerts/
