Our parish family sends our prayers and condolences to Mary's children; Sheila Laurin (Pierre) and Lisa Maitre (Eric). And to her grandchildren; Daniel, Simon and Marissa Laurin. Mary was a active parishioner, she was a member of our Pastoral Care Ministry, and a new volunteer for our Bingo Ministry. Mary had a warm smile and friendly presence, that will be missed by all of us. "Blessed are the dead who from now on die in the Lord. Yes, says the Spirit,‘they will rest from their labours, for their deeds follow them.Revelation 14.13. Yes Mary your good deeds will follow you. May eternal rest be granted upon you. Rest in peace Mary.

If you are coming to Mass this weekend and you want to donate towards our Society of St. Vincent de Paul Giving Tree, please bring your Walmart Gift Cards with you. Just drop them into our Collection Basket at the entrance of the Church. Remember they can be in any denominations. **You can also mail them to the parish office if you can't make it to Mass. THANK YOU!

It might be someone's birthday today? Maybe someone from the Pastoral Team?

Today is the Fourth World Day of the Poor. We thank our Society of St. Vincent de Paul members for all their hard work. Our members not only deliver food to the needy in our area, they also make connections and help the people out in whatever ways they can. Even if it is only to say a prayer with them. Here are their numbers for the month of October: our SSVP- Society of St. Vincent de Paul made 13 deliveries. That included 36 adults & 18 children for a total of 54 served. Th...ey gave out $315.00 in vouchers for the people to go purchase clothing or household supplies at the Society of St. Vincent de Paul stores here in Windsor. Four of those visits were to new families. Our conference gives out gift cards to Metro so the families can go purchase their own meat and so we gave out $150.00 in gift cards for the month of October. "Stretch forth your hand to the poor."

On Thursday evening our Confirmation Candidates joined us in person to complete their journey on receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation. It was so nice to see all the youth again in person. Each candidate had their own table with all their own supplies in a very special I Will Go backpack. We can't wait to see you again next week.

Today the Fogolar Furlan Women's Association held their Memorial Mass in honour of their deceased members. It was our pleasure to celebrate this special Mass with you.
