Saint Vincent’s is a 149 bed, 59-year-old, not-for-profit long-term care facility in the centre of Halifax. 

They are seeking volunteers to assist us in meeting the pastoral needs of our residents in the following capacity:

Last January the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) wrote a pastoral letter on the use of social media entitled: “Let Your Speech Always be Gracious” (pdf). On the one-year anniversary of the publication of the Pastoral Letter on the use of social media, the CCCB has launched a new video series and other resources to help unpack the rich pastoral and moral insights of the Pastoral Letter more fully. A series of five videos on different aspects of the letter have been posted in English and French on the CCCB’s YouTube channel at this link and a downloadable PDF of the letter and social media resources are at this link or visit the CCCB website: www.cccb.ca
