Tues, Dec 4 – A Celebration of Light in Different Religious Traditions
It is with sadness and gratitude that we remember founding ECUT board member and long-time treasurer, Brian Malcolm. Brian’s signature on the official articles of corporation for the Ecumenical Chaplaincy at U of T helped to form and to shape the chaplaincy as we know it. On April 30, 2014, Brian received the ECUT Legacy Award in recognition of his ground-breaking contributions to campus ministry as visionary treasurer and faithful office holder with ECUT from 2001-2014. He was committed to the chaplaincy and understood its importance on the campus. He was a pleasure to work with – he always showed up to meetings on time, with a wonderful warm smile on his face, ready to do the work required to keep the chaplaincy going!
