Our parish is expanding our online presence

It’s very
important that we “like” ourselves, because if we can’t like ourselves, it’ll
be more difficult for anyone else to.

We Will Remember Them...
We were honoured to have two veterans visit our parish recently to share some of their experiences and stories of war-time service. Mr. Roy Lamore and Mr. Bill Bissonette offered an inspirational message for the parishioners who took part in the gathering.
Our guests are pictured below with Fr. Terry and some of the younger parishioners. The event was organized by the Catholic Women's League of our parish.
"Almighty ever-living God, hear our prayers for those who died in defence of country and freedom; grant them eternal rest, and peace to us who keep faith with them, that we may be instruments of your reconciliation and peace, following the example of your Son. Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen."
(Opening Collect for Mass on Remembrance Day)

Last Things Ltd.
In our Catholic life we strive to fulfill the spiritual work of mercy of praying for the living and dead, and the corporal work of mercy of burying the dead.
The following is an video about a group of monks who have brought both of these works of mercy together in a creative and practical way:
Cemetery Visit and Blessing of Graves
A service in memory of our departed family and friends
will be held at St. Patrick's/Mountain View Cemetery on Sunday, November 2, at 2 p.m.
Please gather at the "Priest's Plot".
After the service, participants may make personal visits to the grave-sites of deceased friends and family members.
May the Divine assistance remain always with us,
and may the souls of the faithful departed
through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
