Sr. Christine Addresses both Parishes
This weekend Sr. Christine Gebel (Our Lady’s Misssionaries) spoke at St. Mary’s and St. William’s on her work in the Philippines, and updated us on the work of Our Lady’s Missionaries. I will complete this blog with additional pictures, Sr. Christine’s message, etc. in a few days.
OUR LADY’S MISSIONARIES (OLM) is an international community of women who have devoted their lives to service, by sharing life with the poor and least privileged, while focusing on women’s concerns and working for global justice, peace and care for the earth.Link to OLM website
Message of Sister Christine Gebel (summary):
We are aware of all that God has given us – especially of all that God has given us through you and through people like you across Canada. And in turn, it is our daily call and challenge to open ourselves up and strive to freely give of ourselves to others, most especially those on the margins in Brazil, Guyana, Nigeria, the Philippines and here in Canada. You have given us that opportunity, and we are grateful.
THANKSGIVING WEDDING (part 1)

When I began this blog at the beginning of this week , I did it to publish various celebrations on our Parish Web Site. I set up this blog because it provided an easy venue for posting pictures, and writing brief articles. I’d like to share with visitors to our Website and Blog a few pictures from the Wedding rehearsal of Philip Schipilow, and Tanya Lapierre (daughter of Keith and Jeanette Lapierre of St. Mary’s Parish) who will be married at St. Mary’s at 2:00p.m. this afterenoon. I apologize for the rather poor quality of the photos, but I just started using a camera I got a little over a year ago. I hope that the old saying, practice makes perfect, will apply in my case, or atleast that I will improve. Later today, I will post a few more pictures from the rehearsal, and maybe a few from the wedding.
