Greetings church family!

With fall rapidly making its way to our lovely town, I wanted to share some relevant updates about the life of our church community:

New Warden’s & Treasurer

We also have two new Wardens: Jane Russell - People’s Warden and Bill Pringle - Rector’s Warden, and our new Treasurer Lily Reid. You can learn more about each of them on our website linked here. 

Thank you Ania!

Ania Ronkiewicz has faithfully served as Parish Administrator for St George’s this past season and has now been invited to stay on full time at St Michael’s in Canmore as their Office Manager from September 2023. We are so grateful for the time she was with us in this season of transition and wish her all the best in her new full-time role at St Michael’s. Thank you Ania!

With Ania’s departure, Brit Enriquez will be taking on Parish Administrator in a volunteer capacity. You can reach her via our church email at info@stgeorgesinthepines.com
