In our weekly Canada Connections series, we are virtually travelling across Canada to drop in on different dioceses, following the Anglican Church of Canada's cycle of prayer  as our tour itinerary. It's been a year, and we've come full circle. Come along and  join us in getting to know Anglicans across Canada!

In the week of 9 July 2023 we pray for The Rt. Rev. William Cliff, Bishop, and the clergy and people of the Diocese of Brandon.

"The Diocese of Brandon was founded in 1913 and covers an area of 100,000 square miles of the western half of Manitoba.  The Diocese of Brandon’s Synod was organized in June 1924.  The Synod office and Cathedral are in Brandon, Manitoba." [source: General Synod Archives, anglican.ca]
