As I mentioned in my homily on Sunday, February 27, 2022, there is a subscription service which will deliver to your inbox everyday the Scripture reading of the day along with a small reflection. And it is completely free. It is created by Royal Doors (www.royaldoors.net).
Humanitarian Relief for Ukraine
Metropolitan Lawrence has recommended that we offer donations for humanitarian relief in Ukraine through the Catholic Near East Welfare Association (CNEWA) in Canada. You can donate directly through their website. Alternatively, you can make a donation to the parish and earmark it for CNEWA and we will forward it to the CNEWA.

Restrictions Update on February 15, 2022
On February 15, 2022, the Province of Manitoba by Public Health Order relaxed capacity restrictions for faith-based gatherings such that we can have 50% capacity of the church or 500 people, whichever is lower.
This means that we can have 150 people in the church for our services.
Funerals, Baptisms, and Weddings are now expanded to 50 people.
And we continue with MANDATORY MASKING and SOCIAL DISTANCING within the Church.
You do not have to pre-register for services any longer. There will be a contact sheet at the entrance of the church as we have had in the past.
