With the departure of Michael Chartrand in September 2022, the Bishop announced a few changes in diocesan leadership. The Ven. Dr. Kara Mandryk will, in addition to her duties as the Archdeacon for Ministry and Training in the Diocese, serve as the acting Archdeacon of The Pas until a successor is named.
As of September 18, 2022, the Bishop has appointed the Reverend Jonathan Hoskin to be the Archdeacon of Brandon. Archdeacon Hoskin currently serves the Diocese as the Rector of St. George’s, Brandon and St. Luke’s, Souris. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from Lakehead University, Thunder Bay; a Master of Divinity from Wycliffe College, Toronto; a Master of Sacred Theology from Emmanuel & St. Chad, Saskatoon; and an MA in Leadership from Briercrest Seminary, Caronport, SK. He was ordained as deacon and priest in the Diocese of Algoma in 2005, serving in the Dioceses of Algoma, Saskatoon, Calgary and Qu’Appelle before being appointed as the Rector of St. George’s and St. Luke’s in 2016.
As of publishing, a date for his collation (installation) as Archdeacon has not yet been set.
Congratulations, Archdeacon Hoskin!
