News from Ottawa Campus Chaplaincy: The Board of Ottawa Campus Chaplaincy would like to inform our supporting community that our current chaplain, Ryan Farrell, has been called to and accepted the position of pastor with Kanata Community Church. Ryan will remain in his current, full-time chaplaincy role until October 17, 2026 in order to support the ministry of OCC in its busy fall launch season. Ryan is currently assisting the board as we work hard to plan for interim measures – including the desire to hire an interim leader – for the coming academic year. We hope to have temporary, alternative staffing support in place by the end of September.
