For all members of your Church in their vocation and ministry, that they may serve you in a true and godly life, we pray to you, O Lord.
This prayer from the rite of Ordination in the Book of Alternative Services, reminds us that all baptized Christians share in the ministry of Christ. From time to time, God also calls faithful people in the church to be ordained and to use their gifts in this way. The Anglican Church in the Diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island has several expressions of ordained ministry including deacons, associate priests and full time stipendiary priests. If you believe that you are experiencing a call to ordained ministry or would simply like to explore the possibilities, there is more information available on the Diocesan website.
