                PARISH SUPPORT

                Dear Parishioners,


                I hope and pray that you are staying healthy - both physically and spiritually.  Please let me know if the parish can help during these difficult times.


                No doubt you are aware that our parish relies on the support of our parishioners to operate - parish salaries, programs and ongoing operating costs (heating, water, electricity etc.) - are funded through the generosity of our parish community.  It will be a challenge for our parish to maintain operations without the weekly offertory collection.

                If you wish to continue supporting the parish financially , you can drop your envelope at the parish office or mail it to us.  For more ways to give you can go to the Archdiocesan website at www.archtoronto.org/covid19.  The go to Support Your Parish.

                Through the website you can contribute to the parish offertory by credit card, you can download a form for pre-authorized giving, (or you can pick a form up at each entrance of the church). Or you can contribute via online banking, to do this you need to send a email to campaign@archtoronto.org

                  • Name
                  • Address
                  • Parish Name
                  • Municipality.
                  You will be emailed account information which can be used to set up the Archdiocese of Toronto as a payee in your on-line banking.  Rest-assured your gift will be forwarded to your parish.  You can make a one time or recurring gift to our offertory.


                  If you have any questions regarding the above you can call the Development Office at 416 934 3411 Ext 540.


                  Thank you for your many contribution to our parish community.  I miss seeing all of you at the Mass and I pray daily that we will be able to gather again soon.


                  Yours in Christ


                  Fr. Gerard Pilon


                  Meditation: What can hold us back from doing the will of God? Fear, especially the fear of death and the fear of losing the approval of others, can easily rob us of courage and the will to do what we know is right. Jesus met opposition and the threat of death with grace and determination to accomplish his Father's will. Jesus knew that his mission, his purpose in life, would entail sacrifice and suffering and culminate with death on the cross. But that would not be the end. His "hour" would crush defeat with victory over sin and Satan, condemnation with pardon and freedom, and death with glory and everlasting life.
