St. John Paul the Great. " It can thus be said that women, by looking to Mary, find in her the secret of living their femininity with dignity and of achieving ...their own true advancement. In the light of Mary, the Church sees in the face of women the reflection of a beauty which mirrors the loftiest sentiments of which the human heart is capable: the self-offering totality of love; the strength that is capable of bearing the greatest sorrows; limitless fidelity and tireless devotion to work; the ability to combine penetrating intuition with words of support and encouragement." Blessings on all the moms of Holy House. holyhouse.net

Friends, as you know I’ve been ill for the last several weeks but thank the good Lord, I’m on the mend and will be back at Mass on Tuesday. I’ve missed you and am looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you to Fr. Wright for coverage in my time of difficulty. I was in Edmonton today at our parish mission to conduct Confirmations it wore me out but it was a lovely day with the youngsters there. God bless you all and see you soon. Fr. Bengry

A nice day in Edmonton Confirming the youngsters!

A child’s heart for our little church...
