St. John sAnglicanChurchAfter three happy years as assistant Hector of St. John’s Anglican Church. Rev. Canon Ralph Adye, is retiring from parish work. He celebrated his 40 th Anniversary of Ordination last year. During his long ministry he has seen active service in the Two Great Wars. He will take the last service on Sunday evening at St. John's and there will be an evening held in his honor in the parish hall.His work has been much appreciated by the congregation. His long years of experience. his keen understanding of human nature, his culture, and his thorough foundation in the faith and church teaching has enabled him to make a grand contribution during his short ministry at St. John's. His kindly, sympathetic and spiritual approach at the bedside in hours of consolation, have endeared the Canon to many floundering hearts.Canon Adye finds that the long strain of parish work does not i permit him to continue. His physical strength has been sapped and he finds it necessary to take things easy. He will assist for part time duty for a couple of days per week at the General Hospital in visiting. All who have had association with the Canon do express best wishes for the rest of his life and trust that he will be spared for many years to enjoy a well earned retirement from the pressing duties of Parish work.
