​Ordination into the Ministry of the Church of Ireland

Picture
​
​On Sunday 26 June 1977, John Wesley Stewart was Ordained Deacon in the Ministry of the Church of Ireland.  The Service took place in Down Cathedral, by the Rt Rev George Quin, Bishop of Down and Dromore.  John was ordained with Robert Neill and Kenneth Good (now Bishop of Derry and Raphoe).  At his ordination, John had the honour of reading the Gospel.
 
His first curacy was the parish of Seagoe, Diocese of Dromore with Archdeacon Jack Shearer as his Rector.   He then served in Christ Church, Lisburn, where Canon Arthur Noble was Rector.  In 1985 he became Incumbent of the Ballybay Group of Parishes, Co.|Monaghan, Diocese of Clogher.  In 1990 he became Incumbent of  Derryvullen South and Garvary Parishes.
 
While in Clogher Diocese he served as Canon of Tyholland, Domestic Chaplain to Bishop Hannon, Rural Dean, examining Canon in Clogher Cathedral and until recently Glebes Secretary and Diocesan Registrar.  He also served on the Standing Committee in Dublin.  He was made Chancellor of the Diocese in 2015.
 
John's home parish was St Elizabeth's Dundonald where the Rev Canon H Frizelle encouraged him to go into  full time ministry.
