On Friday February 12, at 11am the Central Interior family and friends are invited to gather at St Paul’s Cathedral for a memorial service to give thanks to God for the life and ministry of Bishop Jim Cruickshank. Archbishop Fred Hiltz, Archbishop John Privett and others from outside of the Central Interior will be joining us. This date was selected as it is the closest day to the anniversary date of his consecration as Bishop of Cariboo on February 9, 1992 and that seemed convenient for the community. A reception will follow in the Cathedral Hall.
As we gather as the Cariboo family of Bishop Jim, I am inviting the clergy (colour white) and LMWS to robe. Pastoral Elders and the Canons of Cariboo and the Central Interior are invited to join the procession. Visiting clergy and ecumenical partners are also invited to robe. Please confirm your attendance with the APCI office by February 5, 2016 - apci@shaw.ca.
In honour of Bishop Jim’s legacy as Bishop of Cariboo and his ministry throughout the church, a Legacy Fund in memory of Bishop Jim Cruickshank, has been set up in the APCI Investment Fund. Donations can be made to the APCI office at 360 Nicola St, Kamloops, BC V2C 2P5, clearly marked in Memory of Bishop Jim. For more information contact the APCI office at apci@shaw.ca.
Please continue to pray for all who mourn the loss of Bishop Jim, especially his family.
