What a great celebration with filled parish temple by parishioners and guests. The children of first confession did a great job of reading the Epistle for the day and singing in the Children s choir the prayer of Otche Nash and New Commandment. Those children made an important step in their life thanks to their teacher Miss Aileen Gardiner who has been preparing them for two school years. We are thankful to her dedication and love to our children. The celebration continued at the Church hall where special breakfast was prepared by Gordiner & Rak family for the Children of First Confession and luncheon served for all attending by the parents of First confession class. Indeed a great day well spent when the parish family gets together and invites relatives and friends. Blessed Father s Day Happy and Blessed Father s Day to all of our fathers! To be a Father is a vocation To become a Father is one thing to be a Father is another. To be a good Father is a constant work That requires, lots of love, sacrifice, patience, endurance, dedication and forgiveness. To fulfill the calling to Fatherhood is an achievement of the life time. You don t have to have your own children to father the children. Father them well! May Our God the Heavenly Father always guide you and support you! Newlyweds Congratulation to our newlywed Faith & Michael Salup and Yuriy & Aimee Zmysly. May God bless you with health, happiness and love in oneness of mind for many more years of life together! Mnohaya Lita!
