Family and friends gathered at St. Matthew’s Cathedral in Brandon the evening of Friday, Oct. 28 to witness the ordination of Rev. Sally Carter to priesthood of the Anglican Church of Canada. A crucifer (person who carries a cross) led lay readers, deacons, clergy, canons and archdeacons up the aisle, followed by Rev. Sally, her presenters and Bishop William. When no less than 12 robed individuals were assembled at the front of the church, they made an impressive visual for the audience.
