On Thursday, March 2, 2023, Bishop John Stephens visited his parish of St. Philip, Dunbar (a parish where he was rector for many years) to invest the parish’s nominee, David Craig Wilson into the Order of the Diocese of New Westminster.
Craig was unable to attend the investiture ceremony in New Westminster, November 5, 2022.
His Citation reads as follows:
Craig has shown steadfast commitment to the St Philip, Dunbar community during changing times in its life. Craig is a faithful man of thoughtfulness, insight, sensitivity, and humour. From website technology to parish visioning, from family nights to finance, from soundboard management to Warden and Trustee, Craig has been deeply involved. He embodies St Philip’s values, treating others with dignity and grace. The parish is blessed to count Craig as a leader among them and they are made a better people by his love and care.
