(Sweet Spices and a) Red Egg
At the Parish of St. Mary Magdalene, in the Diocese of Rupert's Land, they read a letter from the bishop this morning.The bishop announced that the parish officially has a new rector, beginning September 1st.
His name is Preston Parsons.
That's me!
I am very excited to go back home, to be heading into a position suitable to my vocation, and to be near family and good friends.
Thanks be to God!

Congrats! This is very good news. And also what my dad had guessed would be the case in terms of where.
It's always exciting when people are moving back to Winnipeg... even though I don't exactly live here either (for one more year, anyway).
Congratulations!
Excellent news!!
And as someone who entered Independent Catholicism through St Mary Magdalene Independent Catholic Church and who is being ordained on her feast day next month, I heartily approve of your new parish. :-)
We at St. Mary Magdalene also say "Thanks be to God"
Congratulations! Preston, may the blessings of those people come to you as they recieve your many blessings.
O, yeah. Get a therapist. You'll need one that first year. : )
What wonderful news! I'll miss you, though.

Congratulations, Preston. This is wonderful, and I'm sure it's very exciting. I think you'll also be pleased as you discover just how much your CPE experience will contribute to your work as a parish priest. Those skills will translate quite well.
Blessings.
Congratulations -- I wish for you many blessings in your new parish!
I can imagine how much your excited about the news. Great! You guys have our prayer from Japan.
Congratulations!
Ooh, I knew it had to be a parish job! Congratulations and many prayers. So happy you are going where your heart is (home)-- and to a parish named for the Apostle to the Apostles, no less! Peace always,
Jane
The parish of St. Mary Magdalene has got itself a good man and a hell of a priest! I think it shows excellent discernment on their part. Many blessings,
Congratulations Preston.
You must be excited to be heading back to Winnipeg.
Many blessings on your new ministry
