Celebrating Mothers!

“We Are His People, the Sheep of His Flock: World Day of Prayer for Vocations
Yesterday morning, at St. Paul’s Basilica, Archbishop Prendergast of Ottawa, ordained Deacon Adam Hincks and another Jesuit to the priesthood and five others to the diaconate.

Catholic Education Week
“Living as Joyful Disciples”
During Catholic Education Week (May 5-10,2019), we give thanks for the gift of publicly funded Catholic Education in our province. Catholic schools foster supportive communities where young people can experience the joy of God’s love and understand the Christian mission in the world. Together, our parishes, educators and families sow the seeds of faith with the next generation of Catholics, challenging them to live as joyful and faithful disciples.

Archdiocesan Day of Prayer for Vocations
Cardinal Collins has designated Friday, May 3, 2019 as the Archdiocesan Day of Prayer for Vocations. We have three prayer intentions on this day: for the right discernment of vocations still unfolding (from 9:00 to 11:00 am); for endurance in committed vocations (from 11:00 – 12 noon); and for an increase of priestly and religious vocations from (12 noon to 2:00 pm). Our parish prayer initiative will be adoration in the Centre Chapel from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. If you are unable to attend this event, please take a moment to pray for vocations on Friday, May 3. Vocation resources can be found on the Office of Vocations’ website: www.vocationstoronto.ca.
