Father Peter invites all parishioners to join him for the “2015 March For Life” on Thursday, May

Special Collection
Bishop Harris has asked us to take up a special collection for the victims of the earthquake in Nepal
on the weekend of May 16th & 17th. If you wish to make a contribution to this cause, please place
your donation in an envelope marked “Nepal” and place it in the collection that weekend. As
always, please include your name or envelope number for tax receipt purposes. We need to have
all donations by May 17th as there is a tight deadline for us to submit funds in time for them to be
matched by the Government of Canada. Bishop Harris is also requesting your prayers for those
suffering in Nepal.
