Helen Turvo

Helen is a priest at St. Dunstan’s Anglican Church. She has had a rich and varied ministry, including prison and hospital chaplaincy, palliative care, and parish. She is mindfully horrified by her water consumption.

Elaine Chatwin

Elaine is blessed to be part of the vibrant family at St. Dunstan’s Parish. She is drawn to the contemplative and mystical paths of the early church. The teachings of Thomas Keating and Cynthia Bourgeault form the framework of her meditation and study time.  Walking, painting, and gardening are pastimes where the Holy Creator sings joy to her.

Ginny Sawatsky

Ginny joined St. Dunstan’s in fall 2023 and quickly became active with the Centre for Spiritual Renewal, later joining its leadership team. She is the owner and executive director of Pathways, an organization supporting adults with developmental disabilities. In 2021, Ginny opened a coffee shop in Mission to futher her vision of creating a space where everyone is welcome and finds belonging. Outside of work, she enjoys walking, listening to podcasts, traveling, spending time with loved ones, and supporting women’s empowerment in Zimbabwe.
