Rev.
Ian Mackay Ian
was born and raised in a family that cherished values that are central to the
development of social, cultural, spiritual strength and well-being. In his later years of schooling, Ian chose
to affirm these values which for him expressed itself in the call to
ministry, a ministry set in place and granted to him by the United Church of
Canada. It was within the structure
and strength of the United Church that he has completed 40 years of full-
time ministry in varied parts of the country, ever grateful for the
opportunity to serve congregations and communities in needful ways: Flin Fon (St. Luke’s/Grace),
London (First St. Andrew’s), Chatham (Sprucedale),
Kingston (Edith Rankin Memorial), Montreal (St. Lambert). Ian is now happily retired, participating
in the life and work of Trinity United Church (Harrowsmith/Verona) serving as
a retired voluntary minister. They are
happy and proud to be here at Trinity as part of a very special and dedicated
community of faith. |
