Canadian Blood Services Every minute of every day, someone in
Canada needs blood and often from more than one generous
blood donor. You could make the difference. Why should
you think about donating blood? When you donate blood,
you save lives. It’s that simple. Your donation can treat
cancer patients; bring a car accident victim through surgery,
even help a transplant patient’s new heart beat for the first
time.

besoin. Votre soutien nous permettra de continuer à aider
tous les patients, à répondre à tous les besoins et à servir tous

3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
3e dimanche du temps ordinaire
January 27 janvier, 2019
3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
The fulfillment of the Scriptures is found
in the person of Jesus. We spend a lot of time waiting. Waiting for people; waiting
for events; waiting for time to pass; waiting for the cable guy
to show up. One thing we do not have to wait for is for God
to fulfill his promise. That promise – of forgiveness and
union – came in the person of Jesus Christ. And from the
time of those who physically surrounded him to today, the
message has been simple: repent and believe. And that
seems a lot more fruitful than waiting around .
3e dimanche du temps ordinaire
Une parole qui redonne vie
Dans un monde où la mémoire fait parfois défaut, la
communauté croyante est invitée à accueillir la Parole qui
redonne vie.

Does your marriage need
a tune up?
Or even a major overhaul?
Sometimes a marriage can run along fine and then
things change. They may need your time and attention.
Sometimes lines of communication break down and they
need repair. Sometimes our focus moves away from our
marriage and family and needs a little redirection.
Sometimes a fair or average marriage is just not enough.
Have you ever thought to yourself, "How can I make my
marriage better?" If so, Retrouvaille can help. Retrouvaille is
a marriage program for couples whose marriage has become
off course. It begins with a weekend program that can help
get your relationship back on track. It is an effective program
that has worked for thousands of couples and it can work for
your marriage. For more information about the upcoming
Retrouvaille Weekend on February 15-17, 2019, contact
registration team:
Dave or Barb @ 1-800-705-6356, [email protected]
or visit our website: SaveOurMarriage.ca
