From The Windward Islands-
For the FIRST time ever, a Vincentian woman will be ordained priest
in the Anglican Church in the Diocese of the Windward Islands.
Alison Samuel will also be the first female to be ordained priest by
the Anglican Church here in St Vincent and the Grenadines, at a ceremony
which takes place on August 28 at the Church of the Ascension at Sion
Hill.
“My spiritual journey began since a child. I remember my mom taking
me to Sunday School the first time and I was so fascinated by the story I
heard about Jesus and as time went by, she made sure we went to Sunday
School and church every Sunday,” she told SEARCHLIGHT in an interview on
Tuesday.
The Paul’s Avenue resident said it was during those early days that
she developed a love for the Bible. She went on to join the adult choir
at the St George’s Cathedral at age 11 and later served as a Sunday
school teacher and then the superintendent of the Sunday School.
