Good afternoon,
It is with sadness that we inform you of the death of Deacon Rod Rowlands on Wednesday night at home. Over the years he had a variety of health issues, but his death was unexpected.
Deacon Rod served as a permanent deacon of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth since 2015 and was a part of the pastoral team at Holy Trinity Parish since his ordination. He was also CEO of Beacon House which serves our community by providing food and clothing as well as by operating the Beacon House Shelter at the former Saint Elizabeth Seton Church.
May Deacon Rod rest in eternal peace with God, Amen.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
