Celebrate. Dedicate. Anticipate.In 2009 the Anglican Parish of Brisbane is celebrating 150years. There are many events scheduled throughout the diocese to mark this important occasion.The Anglican Parish of St James Toowoomba is also celebrating 140 years this year. A memorial booklet is being compiled and will be available for purchase at our Celebration service on the 15th of November 2009. The service will start at 8.30am and it will be celebrated with Bishop Rob Nolan officiating.To make the event 'come alive' for parishioners we are being asked to consider things we can celebrate every day or every week; dedicate ourselves to something from today onwards and anticipate (and participate in) events within the parish. The community is invited to join us in our 140 year celebration service - the service will start at 8.30 but you will need to come early to get a car park.
