As we continue to live in a world impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Archbishop Mancini wants to offer the faithful a message of hope and encouragement. While our world is full of particular uncertainty regarding the coronavirus, our faith can, and does, offer a certainty that can overcome our fears and anxiety.

Archbishop Mancini has called us to respond to the Canadian Federal Government’s Consultation on medically assisted death. The Archdiocesan Ministry of Care and Companionship Committee strongly supports this call and offers some reflections on this crucial issue.

To the Faithful of the Archdiocese

Dear Friends,

Today, we inaugurate a major change in the organization of our Archdiocese with the decreed new parishes; their new names and pastoral leaders. We have been preparing for this transformation for months and even years, as the many facets of this change have been discussed, considered and are now being implemented, as best we can. There will be a necessary period of adjustments for all of us, and the year 2020 will be greatly marked by our collective effort to live through the major shifts involved in New Parishes: Stronger Together. I thank all parishioners who have patiently expended themselves on this reorganization and I count on your continued support. The most important thing we can do going forward, is combine our efforts with the grace of God, as we move forward into a new era for our Archdiocese.
