Our students were delighted to have new supplies for the beginning of their school year. Many of our students came with little or no supplies and your kindness is greatly appreciated. Please accept my thanks on behalf of the students and staff of St. Michael Community School. Your kindness has made a difference in the lives of many children!

Afterwards, items will be donated to The Friendship Inn. Please bring these items to the Welcome Area by Friday Oct. 11th by 10am. Thank you! FR. DAVID HAS POSTED A NEW BLOG: Fr. David writes, In his homily at the Chrism Mass in Rome this past spring, Pope Francis spoke of the anointing of Aaron as being an anointing that must go to "the edges" and "the fringes." He lovingly referred to the mission of the Church as reaching out to the "existential outskirts." Such wonderful language has encouraged all of the faithful to reach out to the fringes in our own societies and parish communities. To read more, go to Taize Prayer for Christian Unity will be held in the Queen of Peace Chapel at the Cathedral of the Holy Family on the 1st Tuesday of each month from 7:30-8:30pm. The next event will take place on Tuesday October 1st. Taize Prayer originated in Taize, France. As a prayer form, Taize has grown in popularity the world over. Typically offered in retreat houses, Taize is making its way into the corporate prayer life of churches and offers Christians of all stripes and colours the opportunity to pray together. Come to experience a simple form of meditative prayer with Taize music, Scripture reading, and a time of silence in a candle-lit atmosphere. YOUTH GROUPS RELOADED!
