Today we celebrate the 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time. St. Paul in his Letter to the Galatians reminds us that the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself”. May we act according to the love Jesus taught us!

On Canada Day we pray for the prosperity of our home and native land!

Pope Francis asks the faithful throughout the world to pray for the following intention in the month of July: “That those who administer justice may work with integrity, and that the injustice which prevails in the world may not have the last word”.

This Tuesday July 2nd after Mass at 7pm we will have a talk by Sister Consolata. Sister Consolata is a Polish Pallottine nun who is visiting our Parish to share with us her life story and to tell us how God has been working in her life. She was born together with her twin sister in 1946 in a German camp. However, they were separated as infants and it wasn’t until 50 years later that she discovered that she was a twin. This is an amazing story. Now Sister Consolata is overseeing the construction of a senior residence in Cracow near the Shrine of Divine Mercy; a project of the Pallottine Sisters. Everyone is invited to come hear her amazing story.

This week we celebrate the first Thursday, Friday and Saturday of the month with Masses respectively at 7 pm, 9 am and 10 am to honour Jesus – The Eternal High Priest, the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Happy Canada Day and summer holidays!

God bless,
Fr. Peter
