From the Desk of
Father John
I have a few items for you today!
From the Desk of Father John
1.
Church Cleaning
This past Monday morning over 20 people
came out for our “Spring” cleaning. I would like to
thank them most sincerely. Not only did they do a
great job, but they also did it with joy! I would also
like to thank those who were here on Wednesday
and Thursday for the carpet cleaning. You are a
blessing to our parish.
2.
Liturgical Ministries
We are updating our records and would like
to acquire the email addresses of those involved in
any liturgical ministries. So if you are an Altar
Server, Reader, Usher, Minister of Hospitality or an
Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, and
have an email address, please email Anna at
[email protected] Thanks!
3.
Holidays
As I mentioned last weekend, I will be away
from May 18 to May 22 on a quick trip to Montreal.
In the case of a funeral in the parish, Father John
Sharp will be covering. Many thanks to Fr. Sharp.
4.
Right to Life Walk
I will be part of the Walk this year, so if you
are able to sponsor me, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Have a great week!
Fr. John
Da mesa do Padre John
Eu tenho alguns artigos para você hoje!
Da mesa do Padre John
1. Limpeza da Igreja
Esta Segunda-feira passada de manhã mais
de 20 pessoas vieram para a nossa limpeza da
"Primavera". Gostaria de agradecer-lhes muito
sinceramente. Não sóment eles fazem um trabalho
maravilhoso, mas também fezem com alegria! Eu
também gostaria de agradecer àqueles que estavam
aqui na Quarta-feira e Quinta-feira para a limpeza
dos tapetes. Vocês são uma bênção para a nossa
paróquia.
2. Ministérios Litúrgicos
Estamos atualizando os nossos registros e
gostaria de adquirir os endereços de email das
pessoas envolvidas em quaisquer ministérios
litúrgicos. Então, se você é um servidor do altar,
leitor, porteiro, ministro da hospitalidade ou ministro
extraordinário da sagrada comunhão, e ten um
endereço de e-mail, por favor enviam o e-mail para
Anna por meio de [email protected] Obrigado!
3. Ferias
Como eu mencionei na semana passada, eu
não vou estar ca no dia de 18 Maio - 22 Maio vou
em uma viagem rápida para Montreal. No caso de
um funeral na paróquia, o Pe. John Sharp estará
cobrindo. Desde já, agredecemos ao Pe. Sharp.
4. Caminhada do Direito à Vida
Eu serei parte da caminhada deste ano, por
isso, se você podia me patrocinar, seria muito
apreciado.
Tenha uma ótima semana!
Pe. John

Rosary Visitors in the Schools
We, the volunteer Rosary visitors, have just
completed another successful year of praying with
our children at O.L.I. and S.V.D.P. schools with
beautiful May Celebrations of the Crowning of Our
Blessed Mother, Mary. The children love to learn
the ‘mini Gospel’ – The Rosary meditations and
prayers throughout the year. Unfortunately, we are
now down to only a few volunteers, as two of our
ladies have retired due to health reasons. If we are
unable to recruit more volunteers next school year it
may prove to be too difficult to continue this very
worthwhile program to all our children. We would
love to have more helpers ‘on board’ and it only
involves visiting one morning each month October
to May. Please, prayerfully consider joining us
come September and be assured that you will find
great rewards and blessings for certain.
Call John Van Heeswyk @ 519-246-1584 or
Linda Bermudez @ 226-919-6915.
Thank you and God bless you.
