“Raise the Roof, Ring the Bells, Feed the Hungry”


On Sunday April 19th St. Faith’s was pleased to welcome guest speaker Ian Birtwell who gave those gathered for our parish breakfast an amazing presentation about the upcoming restoration of Christ Church Cathedral project “Raise the Roof, Ring the Bells, Feed the Hungry” 

Not only will this project complete renovations for the church building and roof, it will expand the capacity of the kitchen to continue the amazing ministry of feeding the many in need in downtown Vancouver, it will also build a beautiful new bell tower.

The new bell tower will feature gorgeous stained glass by artist Sarah Hall with the Westminster chime four bells ringing:  twice daily; for each major service at the Cathedral; for civic events and significant festivals of other faiths.

St. Faith’s offers our grateful thanks to Ian and Jenny Birtwell for coming to our breakfast to share with us about the amazing “Raise the Roof, Ring the Bells, Feed the Hungry”  project.  Check out the great picture of Ian who was in France for the casting of the bell.
