Lay Readers' Conference

Annual Conference Offers Opportunities for Learning, Formation, and Fellowship

Lay Readers and other interested Anglicans from across the Diocese of Algoma are invited to gather in Sudbury from September 24–27, 2026, for the 2026 Lay Readers’ Conference, a weekend of theological learning, ministry formation, and fellowship.

Hosted in partnership with Thorneloe University, this year’s conference—Bring God’s Grace and Love—combines the annual Lay Readers’ educational event with a special theological intensive led by Rev. Dr. H. Daniel Zacharias, offering participants multiple ways to engage depending on their interests and availability.
