Watching over St. Peter's-by-the-Sea
St. Peter's-by-the-Sea, one of three small, white, wooden Anglican churches on the Magdalen Islands. It's a church, like the others, that commemorates those who lived and died by the sea. Jacquie visits the church, and then is joined in studio by its former minister, Bruce Myers, now Archdeacon for Quebec. There's a song too, by Grosse Ile's Graham Burke.
