- Special report: Journey to Jerusalem Sunday.
- "On June 1 [2-14], Canadian Anglicans will celebrate Jerusalem Sunday for the first time. The new annual observance come from General Synod's 2013 resolution to set aside the seventh Sunday of Easter, know as the Sunday after the Ascension, as a day to learn about the diocese of Jerusalem. A special collection will be requested in support of the far-flung diocese's ministries. 'The Anglican Church of Canada and the diocese of Jerusalem have been companions in mission for many years', explained Andrea Mann, the church's global relations director. 'Jerusalem Sunday is intended to lift up this relationship and celebrate the 'living stones' of the diocese -- Arab Christians and others serving in ministries of hospitality, education, health care and reconciliation in Jerusalem, Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria'."
