Many of us are still not able to come to church to celebrate Mass. For those who cannot join us the Diocese of Hamilton has prepared a liturgy you can pray with your family at home for this Sunday’s Feast of the Holy Family. Click the button below to get an early look at the resources. You can also come back to our website on Sunday to listen to Fr. Raphael’s homily for the feast day.
Today, December 21, is the Winter Solstice. It is the day when the earth is farthest from the sun and we have the shortest day and the longest night. This is an important day for many cultures, including many of the Indigenous Nations here in Canada. Today we invite you to learn more about the Winter Solstice by reading the article by CBC by clicking here, and by listening to the stories shared by Joely BigEagle-Kequahtooway from the Buffalo People Arts Institute in the video below.
