WEEKDAY MASS SCHEDULE

Eucharistic Adoration: Please note that Adoration at all 3 parishes is on hold for the

summer and will resume in the fall. Locations and times will be announced in future bulletins.

Fr. Dwayne: Humbled and honoured by this appointment as Pastor of our Family of Parishes, I believe that

we can be stronger together if we keep Jesus at the centre of our lives. This new model of parish life invites

the participation of all the baptized in the proclamation of the Gospel. It will be a time of transition for all of

us. We are given a beautiful opportunity to open our hearts in welcome of one another as we celebrate

Eucharist and are given the strength to minister to the needs of all. Along with the Pastoral and Leadership

Teams of our communities, we hope to work collaboratively for the good of all of you, the people we have

been appointed to serve.

Fr. Ray: Hi everyone. I am very much looking forward to being a part of this family of Parishes. I am excited to be serving these communities with Fr. Dwayne and I am looking forward to getting to know you. There are many changes taking place for all of us and I am anticipating the wonderful fruits of working together as one Family united by our love for Jesus.

A Special Welcome to Bishop Joseph Dabrowski, Auxiliary Bishop of the Diocese of London: It is with great joy that we welcome Bishop Joe to our newly formed LaSalle River Canard Catholic Family of Parishes. He is here to support and bless us as we begin this new journey of faith. As a “mission-oriented” parish, we will intentionally form disciples of Jesus who will share the Good News of the Gospel with each other and with all whom we encounter in our daily lives.

Deacon Art Bondy: Be blessed, everyone. My name is Deacon Art Bondy, and with my wife Kelly, I wish to express my delight and excitement at being privileged to serve in our new LaSalle River Canard Catholic Family of Parishes. There is no greater joy than bringing the Gospel message to others, and the challenges we face and overcome together will only deepen and strengthen our love and devotion to Jesus and to each other. Let the Holy Spirit enliven us and fill us with joy in our hearts and souls. God is good, all the time!

Rebecca Bondy: Everyone looks for a place to call home, a place to belong. It is part of our human nature. As of July 1st we have come into a new way of being as a “Family of Parishes” and the possibilities are endless! On a personal note, I recognize the challenges will be many. I am looking forward to being able to creatively serve people in a new way. This is an exciting missional opportunity and one I do not want to miss! As we move into this model, the intent is to call the baptized forward in using their gifts to bring the “Good News” to those in our geographical community and beyond. We are all family, this is our home and we all belong....we are the living Body of Christ.

Lisa Mullins: One of the definitions of family is: “all the descendants of a common ancestor”. How wonderful it is that we are the descendants, the brothers and sisters of Jesus. He calls us to discipleship, to be his hands and feet to serve, his heart to love and he entrusts us to share with others the Kingdom of God. We are now a Family of Parishes called to continue the mission of Jesus. I know for myself it is a time of many changes and challenges and a time for growth. We are ALL called forth to use our gifts and talents to bring the “Good News” to all we encounter. I am looking forward to sharing and co ministering with you on this new journey.

Thank you: On behalf of our three parish communities, we thank the Parish Pastoral Council members for their leadership and service. You are greatly appreciated for the advice and assistance that you have provided.

Thank you to Kevin Simone, Jen Marrocco, Rita Raniwsky, Nina Rimac, Brian Muscat and Sherri Tovell from Sacred Heart Parish.

Thank you to Paul Kosokowsky, Piero Amicone, Dave Beneteau, Kellie Drouillard, Sophia Thomas-Lavigne, Suzanne Speller and Nancy Jones from St. Joseph Parish.

Thank you to Bernie Campeau, Elise Daragon, Kelly Fenn, Ralph Marentette, John Riberdy and Gerry Semande from St. Paul’s Parish.

Parish News Updates: The new

weekday and weekend mass schedules are now fully implemented. Please consult the bulletin for the locations and times of all celebrations. Please note the new confession time and location of the celebration of Reconciliation. Confessions will be heard at Sacred Heart Church each Saturday morning from 11:15am – 12 noon. As promised, we will periodically review these schedules.

Fr. Ray is presently settling into the rectory at Sacred Heart. Remember that both priests, the deacon and the pastoral ministers now work for the whole Family of Parishes and no longer for one individual parish.

You are urged to pray regularly the prayer for our Family of Parishes. May God bless us!

Vérifiez attentivement l’heure et l’endroit des messes sur semaine. Le sacrement de Réconciliation aura lieu le samedi à Sacred-Heart entre 11h15 et midi. L’équipe paroissiale est au service de TOUTE la Famille de paroisses, pas une seule. Priez régulièrement la prière pour notre Famille de paroisses.

Sacramental Information for 1st Reconciliation, 1st Communion & Confirmation: All of the GRADE 1 and GRADE 7 students at St. Joseph, Mgr. Caron and Sacred Heart Schools received a letter and schedule of dates for the

preparation and celebration of 1st Reconciliation, 1st Communion and Confirmation with their report cards. If your child attends a non-feeder school, please make sure to pick up the information that can be found at the entrance of any of the parishes. Parents are urged to mark these meetings in their calendars. Non-attendance at the meetings will cause the deferral of the reception of the sacraments until the following year. Much effort and preparation is being done so as to better prepare the children and their families to celebrate these sacraments.

Baptismal Preparation Team: The current team of parishioners from each church, who are preparing people for the baptism of their children, are going to meet to standardize the protocols for the celebration of baptism in our Family of Parishes.

Funeral Prayer Team: A number of individuals have been trained to lead prayers at the funeral home. They will gather to review the ritual and ensure that they are following diocesan policy regarding wake services.

RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults): A very important process of educating adults who are seeking to join the Catholic Church or who desire to complete the

Sacraments of Initiation will be offered in our family this fall. A team of parishioners from different walks of life share the truths of our faith and their insights into various topics that are presented. The RCIA gatherings will be offered on Tuesday evenings (usually every second Tuesday, except before Easter when the gatherings are weekly). We will share this journey of faith at St. Joseph Church in the parish hall (basement) from 7 – 9 pm. Registration forms are available on line or can be requested from the parish office.

PPC: The current Pastoral Councils of each parish will complete whatever projects they

have in place for this year. The Transition Team has consented to be the Parish Pastoral Council for our Family until early in the New Year when a new PPC will be formed with equal representation from each parish. The Transition Team is preparing a Pastoral Plan that will guide us for the next 6 months. They will provide us with 6 action items that will correspond with the 6 goals of the Diocesan Pastoral Plan. These will soon be published. Along with the Pastoral Plan, the Transition Team is formulating a “Mission Statement” which will describe who we are and what we are called to be!

Le CPP de chaque paroisse terminera les projets qu’il a en marche. L’équipe de transition est le nouveau CPP jusqu’au début 2020. À ce temps, un nouveau CPP sera mis en place avec représentation égale de chaque paroisse. Nous publierons sous peu leur énoncé de mission pour nous ainsi que 6 buts reliés au Plan Pastoral diocésain.

Sunday Offertory: A reminder that all offertory envelopes and pre-authorized debit donations will remain with your home parish. Loose donations stay in the church where they were given.

Parish Offices: The current office locations remain open, with the staff continuing to serve the communities on

the same days and with the same hours of work as established at present.

Veuillez noter que le bureau de chaque paroisse demeure ouvert aux jours et heures qui étaient en vigueur avant la naissance de notre famille.
