Parish Council

Parish Council consists of our Rector, the Wardens and other Parishioners. They are here to represent you, to answer your questions, to listen and to respond to the needs of the Parish.

All Saints Parish Council meets once a month to discuss the business of the Parish, hear reports from the Rector, Wardens and Treasurer and seek direction for the future. The Parish Council members are chosen by the congregation and called by God to carry out both business affairs of our Parish and the spiritual welfare and growth as a family of God. The Council is always mindful of our Mission and Ministry and asking what God is calling us to do.

Parish Administrator

I moved to BC from England in 2004 with my husband and two kids. We love Ladner and consider ourselves incredibly privileged to live in such a beautiful corner of the world. We now have three kids, the youngest of which is 15.

I was baptised in the Anglican Church by my Grandfather. After a period of wandering I returned to Christianity on joining a Baptist church at the age of 26. Returning to the Anglican tradition for me is like coming home.

I have been working at All Saints for about nine years now. When I first came for the interview here I expected a very conservative environment but I have never been more wrong. When we say “All Are Welcome” we mean just that - I’m delighted to be a part of All Saints and to truly feel I belong here.

When I’m not at work I love spending time with my kids and my pets at home. I play the harp (badly) and love to write and to sing.

Parish Treasurer

Leanne has close to 20 years of accounting experience and loves working with non-profit entities. She and her family live in Tsawwassen and love being part of the tight knit South Delta Community.
