Order of the Diocese of New Westminster - Citation for Brian Mix:
Brian has given dedicated devout service and thoughtful leadership to St. Philip’s through many years, including some very challenging times of change. As a musician, and in lay administration, reading, Parish Council, Warden, finance, Capital Campaign, youth leader and Stewardship, Brian’s broad involvement is imbued with his talents, steadiness, grace, and faith. The parish is richer for his gifts. This blending of the sacred with the ordinary is central to Brian’s contributions to St. Philip’s and the loving respect he generates.
