MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR |
|
Greetings of Easter! As we continue to celebrate the Easter Season I am hoping and praying that your family is doing well in these trying times that we are living.
I want to express my gratitude to you as for your continuous support to our parish. Though we can’t still have mass with your presence, you continue to help the Church. From the bottom of my heart thank you for all your support.
In this trying times that we are living we have some brethren that lost their jobs and in need, for this reason I am appealing to your generous hearts for anything that we can extend to some members of our community that are in need.
Everyday I will put outside the Church the bins we used during the Christmas hampers in this specific hours: Sunday, Tuesday and Friday 09:00 AM - 11:00 AM Saturday, Wednesday and Thursday 04:00 PM - 06:00 PM.
By the end of this month all the gathered goods will be given to Morinville Food Bank. May the Good Lord continue to bless you in your generosity.

BISHOP PAUL TERRIO ASKED ALL THE PARISHES TO IMPLEMENT IMMEDIATELY THESE DIRECTIVES: |
|
|
|
All weekend and weekday Masses in the Diocese of St. Paul are cancelled. For the duration of this period, I grant to all the Catholic faithful dispensation from their Sunday obligation. In these extraordinary circumstances, I encourage everyone to participate “remotely” in the celebration of the Eucharist by tuning in to daily Mass with Salt and Light on TV. In addition, the Diocese will explore the possibility of livestreaming Sunday Mass which would be accessed on our diocesan website. Further information about this will be forthcoming. |
| All Lenten Parish Missions are cancelled. |
|
All Parish Penitential Celebrations are cancelled. Priests will remain available to hear confessions, but the use of the confessional is prohibited throughout the period of this pandemic. |
|
All celebrations of Baptism, First Eucharist, First Reconciliation and Confirmation are postponed until the Chief Medical Officer has advised that the pandemic has ended. |
|
Sacramental Preparation Classes for both children and adults are cancelled. |
|
Funerals may continue to be celebrated in our churches. In consultation with the relatives of the deceased, the priest celebrant will determine if participation needs to be limited to family members so as to be in compliance with prevailing medical directives. Public receptions following the funeral liturgy should not take place. |

We invite you individually or as a family to say the rosary with the help of the internet. "Come Pray the Rosary" is a perpetual rosary that allows people to say the rosary together on the internet. You can join with others and say the rosary in progress, or start it individually by choosing the mystery you want to say. Through this website, you can follow along as the Rosary is recited, with the visual aid of video from the Holy Land. You can literally see the places where the mysteries take place! You also can keep track of how many other people, around the world, are joining you in prayer. By clicking on the number of people praying and then the map, you can actually see the location of those you are praying with on a map. Please check out this great website at http://www.comepraytherosary.org/.
