About Craig Bowers

I am a child of the St. Lawrence Seaway. It was for me a place of encounter for all the many faces of faith that came into this great land of Canada . I was a teacher and stone carver before being ordained in the Diocese of Ottawa in 2002. Presently, I am in a team ministry in Kanata. Serving as the diocese Ecumenical-Interfaith Officer has been a great joy and has allowed me to work internationally with the Greek Orthodox Church and host interfaith events in Ottawa. Being part of “The Community” will be an absolute gift in drawing us further into being one in Christ!

Merry Christmas to our friends at…!
