CHRISTMAS DINNER IN STRACHAN HALL ON DEC. 5TH
Trinity College's annual Christmas Dinner will be held on Wed., Dec. 5. As those who
have attended in years past know, this is a very popular event for the whole college.
Unfortunately, the two dining halls at St. Hilda's and Trinity are not large enough to
accommodate all students, faculty, and administrators.
This year, to help ease the crush in Strachan Hall the members of the Senior Common Room
will be dining in the Combination Room. The SCR is pleased to be able to invite up to
30 divinity students (not including those who are already SCR members) to join us for
Christmas Dinner, which will include wine and Christmas Carols. There will not be a
designated Divinity Table in Strachan Hall on Dec. 5.
If you would like to reserve a seat for Christmas Dinner on Wed., Dec. 5 with members of
the Senior Common Room, please email Matthew Cadwell by 11:00 a.m. on Tues., Dec. 4:

New Vestments for Chapel
Congratulations!
We have new vestments (hopefully more to come!)
There are six new cassocks and six new surplices, six new cassocks/albs. They are all different sizes, hopefully the six cassocks/albs will fit the various members of a team for the Community Eucharist when there are at least five students in the sanctuary. If the sizing does not work for your team, use the old albs so that everyone is dressed the same.
I will order more cassocks/albs in the new year. In the meantime it's great to be ridding ourselves of the old "Trinity Albs".
We won't be using them immediately which is a good thing because I forgot the cinctures (they are ordered).
I'm so excited!!

International Anglican Women's Network
The Anglican Consultative Council has a number of networks one of which is the International Anglican Women's Network. It operates on three levels, one with a Steering Group from 8 geographic areas, another with one Link woman from each of the 38 ecclesiastical provinces appointed by her Primate, and a few units operating nationally to support this work. In
Canada we have all three which is very unique. Canon Alice Medcof serves on the Steering Group, Elizabeth Loweth is the appointed Link for Canada and also serves as the coordinator for the unit operating here.
The focal points for the IAWN-Canada include the Millennium Development Goals, the UN Commission on the Status of Women, and the Anglican Consultative Council resolution 13/31 seeking gender equality in policy making within the Anglican Communion.
The annual meeting for the IAWN-Canada will be held Monday, Nov. 5, at the national office 80 Hayden St. in the board room from 11 to 1. It should be a great opportunity for students and faculty to hear about the work of this network and to talk with some of the bishops and national staff who will meet with us.
No registration is needed, but it would help to know how many are coming so we can plan refreshments. Please come and if you are able to phone ahead of time, call:
Laura Wilson - 416 487 0250
or
Elizabeth Loweth - 905 883 8197

"Elizabeth: The Golden Age finds Queen Elizabeth I (Cate Blanchett) facing
bloodlust for her throne and familial betrayal. Growing keenly aware of the
changing religious and political tides of the late 16th century Europe,
Elizabeth finds her rule openly challenged by the Spanish King Philip II
with his powerful army and sea-dominating armada determined to restore
England to Catholicism."
We wish you all a safe, restful, and rejuvenating time during reading week next week... and maybe even give you time to finish all that reading!
