Exhibition honours chaplains’ service during conflict

Retired Anglican Archbishop of Toronto Terrence Finlay models Bishop Charles Henry Brent’s Cope, given to him in 1920 by the people of France for his service with the American Expeditionary Forces during the last year of the First World War. The elaborate liturgical garment has been restored by the Needleworkers Guild of Toronto.

TORONTO - For the first time in Canadian history, the men and women who ventured into war unarmed, carrying a holy book, ready to listen to and serve soldiers in distress are being remembered with a museum exhibition.
