Inscrire son enfant au caté, c'est lui permettre de rencontrer Jésus et de découvrir que Dieu aime chacun d'entre nous; c'est lui faire connaître la richesse de la tradition chrétienne. C'est aussi lui donner l'occasion de réfléchir aux questions qu'il se pose sur lui-même, le monde et Dieu. Avec d'autres chrétiens : enfants, adultes, catéchètes, prêtres... Comment inscrire son enfant aux parcours catéchétiques? Si votre enfant a sept ans et plus. Prendre contact avec Carole B. Roy en appelant le 514-683-4941 ou par internet [email protected] Nous vous encourageons d’inscrire votre enfant immédiatement afin que nous puissions bien préparer son accueil au mois de septembre.

We are in need of a bookkeeper and an assistant to the Director. These are not time consuming positions. Please consider becoming a part of this wonderful ministry and joining us in making a difference in the lives of our homeless brothers and sisters, by being the hands and feet of Jesus. Catherine Lemieux 514-684-1606 or Christine Agombar 514-626-8611. We look forward to welcoming you on board! Angela Bardosh 514-296-6262 Angels of Mercy You are in our prayers! Mission In the coming weeks, we will reach out to every home on the territory of St. Luke’s parish. We will be delivering a short letter that says, we pray for them. If people wish, they may send us a prayer intention by email or just write their prayer intention on plain paper and bring it to the office. We will pray regularly for them by a petition at Sunday mass. In this letter we will also invite people to come to five prayer gatherings at 8:00 pm on the following dates: October 18th and November 15th, 2016; January 17th, March 21st and May 16th, 2017. This is will be a 20 minute prayer gathering, followed by a time of fellowship. Everyone is welcome. Through this activity our hope is to attain 2 goals: 1. Support everyone with our prayer who is living in St. Luke’s parish; 2. Reach out to new people who don’t come to church. It is our humble wish to evangelize and hope that people who don’t come to church will now come to live their faith. There are about 10 000 homes on the territory of our parish. We need about 150 volunteers to deliver a copy of this letter. Each one would deliver 50 to 100 letters. After, this week’s mass and the following weekends in September, you may register for this task in the parish hall. For more information: Fr Bertrand, Maria Ruocco or Tony Rettino by email: [email protected] Nous prions pour vous! Mission Au cours des prochaines semaines, nous souhaitons livrer une lettre à toutes les résidences sur le territoire de la paroisse Saint-Luc afin de leur dire que nous prions pour eux. S’ils les gens le souhaitent, ils pourront nous envoyer une intention de prière par courriel ou en l’écrivant sur une feuille qu’ils l’apporteront au bureau. Nous prierons régulièrement pour eux par une intention à la messe du dimanche. Sur cette lettre, nous invitons également les gens à venir à 5 moments de prière à 20h00 aux dates suivantes : 18 octobre et 15 novembre 2016 ; 17 janvier, 21 mars et 16 mai 2017. Ce n’est pas une masse mais une prière d’environ 20 minutes suivie d’un moment de fraternité. Tout le monde est bienvenu. Par cette activité, nous voulons atteindre 2 objectifs : 1. Soutenir de notre prière tous ceux qui vivent dans la paroisse Saint-Luc; 2. Rejoindre de nouvelles personnes qui ne viennent pas à l’église. Nous souhaitons humblement évangéliser et nous espérons que de nouvelles personnes viendront vivre leur foi à notre église. Nous avons environ 10 000 résidences sur le territoire de notre paroisse. Il faut environ 150 bénévoles pour livrer chacun 50 à 100 lettres. Après la messe, cette semaine et les autres week-ends de septembre, vous pouvez vous inscrire dans la salle paroissiale afin d’accomplir cette tâche.

Participants in this workshop hear first-hand, from the creator of the FSE, how to offer them in and for a variety of life situations. This workshop will describe how prayer exercises and spiritual conversation are taught to groups, as well as how facilitators are trained to lead people through the FSE and prepare others for this ministry.
