Calling All Singers!

The choir returns this week to provide music for the Sunday 10 am Mass. Anyone wishing to join the choir is asked to contact Leo our music director after Mass. Rehearsals take place in the SDU Boardroom on Thursday evenings 6:30 - 8 pm with a warm-up on Sunday mornings at 9:30 in the choir loft. Even if you don't read music, as long as you have a good ear and are willing to take the time to record and learn the parts at practice, you should be golden!

Sorting

Another reminder of the necessity of properly sorting waste, compost, and recyclables when church facilities are used. It remains an issue. Staff are left with the unpleasant task of sifting through the refuse. If we work together, this issue can easily be resolved. Many thanks for your attention.

Repairs

While we got off relatively unscathed by the winds of Fiona, we did lose a number of slate tiles from the church roof, as well as some minor damage to metal flashing. Several panes of glass lost from the north steeple. Temporary fixes were made soon after. Permanent repairs are now underway. We have insurance coverage. Please keep away from work areas.

National Evangelical Teams (NET)

National Evangelical Teams (NET) is a Catholic youth-based organization, conducting youth ministry through retreats and other forms of outreach in a number of countries. One of our parishioners, Eli
Grant, has been accepted by NET Ireland. Eli has been our dedicated head altar server for a number of years, and has been raising money to support his venture. If you would like to help, you can also make out a cheque to Eli Grant and drop it off at the Parish Office, put it in the collection basket, or give it to Eli directly. Please note, since NET is a separate organization, the parish will not be able to issue receipts for these donations
