Together in Action
Si vous faites des
recherches
ou
vous
parlez à vos amis
d’ailleurs, vous comprendrez que la plus
part des diocèses organisent une levée de
fond semblable à celle du Diocèse de
Calgary afin de venir en aide aux
organismes qui aident les démunies.
L’objectif 2012 pour notre paroisse est de
13 997$. SVP pensez-y; tous vos dons
sont appréciés.
Prier le chapelet
L’icône de Notre-Dame de Guadeloupe sera
dans la paroisse, le dimanche 25 mars. Les
Chevaliers de Colomb vous invitent à venir
réciter le chapelet à 19h00.
Faire part
Le 13 mars, M. Laurent Patenaude, le
frère ainé de Bernadette Pagé est décédé
en Saskatchewan. De la part de tous les
paroissiens, nous offrons nos sincères
condoléances à Bernadette.
Il faut avoir le courage de mettre de côté ambitions et
projets qui détruisent le vrai sens de la vie, qui est
seulement de croire à l’amour de Dieu.
Bienheureuse Chiara Badano
Le mercredi 14 mars, nous avons eu le

Vincent L. L., Elias T., Emery T. et Magnus

Ce fut pour nous une soirée agréable et
intime. Abbé Noël et Nicole
Félicitations aux membres du personnel et
aux familles de l’École Sainte-MargueriteBourgeoys qui ce dimanche serviront le
repas Feed the Hungry.
Le courage de la vérité
« Le langage de la Croix est folie pour ceux qui se perdent. Mais pour ceux qui sont
en train d’être sauvés, pour nous, il est puissance de Dieu », dira l’apôtre Paul aux
chrétiens de Corinthe (1 Cor, 18 et s). Cette sainte Croix que nous allons baiser de nos
lèvres, dans quelques jours, nous convoque à la suite du Christ qui l’a embrassée, à
avoir le courage de la vérité. Le courage de la proclamer. Le courage de l’enseigner, à
temps et à contretemps. C’est ce qu’on attend du prêtre dans la responsabilité pastorale que l’évêque lui
confie. C’est ce qu’on attend du fidèle laïc en raison de l’engagement baptismal au cœur du monde.

Liturgy Office
Save the date: Chrism Mass 2012 | Monday April 2, 7:30 pm, at St. Mary's Cathedral.
Doors open at 6:30pm. During this Mass, the Bishop blesses the oil of catechumens, the oil
of the sick, and the oil of chrism. The chrism is freshly prepared for the baptising of
catechumens at the Easter Vigil and the other oils are blessed on this day as well. As the
Bishop is the only minister who can bless chrism, this liturgy ritualises his presence through
the chrism that will be used by priests and deacons of the diocese throughout the year.
