I am saddened to report that the Reverend Canon Robert Kenwood Cooper, our former Curate and Priest of St. Matthias parish, passed away on Friday the 8th of February around 7:00pm in the evening. Fr. Cooper was a blessing and more to our parish during his tenure here. I don't think I will ever be able to forget the image of him walking into the parish hall in his black shirt, collar, black dress shoes, black socks, and shorts. He was (and still is) a man who commands a large presence. He will be missed.
For more information on Fr. Cooper, please see the link below.

Bible study is offered at 9 a.m. in the McMichael room. Everyone is
invited to participate in this group as we study what I (and others)
consider the most exciting book of the New Testament, if not the whole
Bible, "The Acts of the Apostles ".
This is the story of the first years of the Church, with Peter and Paul
as the main characters. We invite you to come and join us and see for
yourself - and bring a friend!
I look forward to sharing the word of the Lord with you!
Father Ben
