Sharing Family News on the death of The Very Rev. The Honourable Dr. Lois M. Wilson.With great sadness, The United Church of Canada announces the death of The Very Rev., The Honourable Dr. Lois M. Wilson, the denomination’s 28th Moderator, and the first woman to fill the role. She faithfully served as Moderator from 1980 to 1982. Rev. Wilson died in hospital in Fredericton, NB, on Sept. 13, 2024. She was 97 years old. Her faith drove her actions, and she remained involved in the work of the Church right to the end. Born in Winnipeg, MB, in 1927, Wilson’s legacy is one of many firsts: the first woman president of the Canadian Council of Churches in 1976; elected the first woman Moderator of the United Church in 1980, paving the way for many progressive developments in the church; the first Canadian to serve as a president of the World Council of Churches, from 1983 to 1991. In 2000, she led Canada’s first parliamentary delegation to North Korea to begin the process of establishing formal diplomatic relations. For a decade from 1990 to 2000, she was the Chancellor of Lakehead University. She was appointed to the Senate in 1998, retiring in 2002.We give deep thankfulness for the life of Lois Wilson and the tremendous contributions she made to The United Church of Canada. Lois Wilson's ministry and tireless activism for justice changed the United Church, and indeed, changed Canada and the world.Funeral arrangements will be shared when available.
