Renowned Canon to Preach Monday at St. Paul’s
In recognition of the Episcopal Church’s designation of 1990 as the Year of Evangelism, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 1221 Wass, Tustin, will host Canon Bryan Green, British evangelist, for a preaching mission at 7 p.m. on Monday .
For more than two generations, Green has been “Greening” the Anglican Church around the world. Recently, the Anglican Episcopal Institute of Mission and Evangelism recognized Green with its first award for his work with the U.S. church.
Born in 1901, Green has been an evangelist since the age of 17. A native of the United Kingdom, he was ordained a priest of the Church of England in 1925. Since that time, he has traveled throughout Great Britain, speaking to young people and conducting evangelical missions. At age 89, he still keeps up a heavy speaking schedule.
Green will discuss one of his books, “Saints Alive,” which focuses on what a saint is and how a saint can bear witness to the Gospela of Christ. After his talk in the church, there will be a reception in the parish Hall. For information, call (714) 544-3141.
