Good morning- we have had a few inquiries from people as to whether their envelopes are available. Firstly, thank you so much for continuing to support our Parish. While things may be closed down, we have operating expenses that still exist. Thank you for your support. Should you wish to pick up your envelopes, please call the Church office at 416-241-0133 and we will most certainly arrange for you to be able to pick them up. Thanks and God bless!

Did you know that today is not only the Feast of the Presentation, but it is also the World Day for Consecrated life? We pray today in a special way to those men and women who have consecrated their lives to the service of God, who have taken vows so as to live a life in complete dedication to Him. Please say a prayer for all these men and women today and perhaps you would consider visiting the Office of Vocations website today (linked from our new webpage) to learn more about not just the Consecrated life, but all vocations.

Hello everyone!!! We are now up and running on our new website platform!!! Please note that this is a working project and we will be adding more and more material as time goes by.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

As mentioned today at Church, as of Monday, November 23, we will not be permitted to have public Masses. Please see the post below for the guidelines from our Archdiocese. We will post and update as things are made known to us. Please continue to pray for each other at this time and please join us for online Mass at 11:00 every Sunday on our Facebook page. While this is a difficult time, let us remember, especially today as we celebrate the Solemnity of Christ the King, that regardless of what goes on around us, He is our King who has conquered all. Let us turn to Him. Christus vincit! Christus regnat! Christus imperat!

Interesting! Some more info about this Solemnity.
