Strive to enter through the narrow gate. Today we are given fair warning by Jesus that we should strive earnestly to enter the kingdom of God, and not simply assume a place will be reserved for us. So let’s make an effort, as we travel the path of discipleship, to travel lightly, unencumbered by unnecessary attachments to the things of this world.
21e dimanche du temps ordinaire
Dieu toujours à l’œuvre Dieu rassemble toutes les nations autour de lui, mais chaque personne doit faire l’effort de passer à la suite du Christ par la porte étroite. Dieu se comporte avec nous comme un père pour que nous produisions «un fruit de paix et de justice» (deuxième lecture).

Avow Vocation Discernment Groups for Catholic Women Every woman is called to make a gift of herself in love. Discovering the form the gift will take is the art of discernment. Avow is a small group for Catholic women, ages 18 to 35, who gather for heart-to-heart conversation and study as they embark on the journey of discernment together. Avow is not a program to recruit or convince you of your vocation; rather it is designed to create an atmosphere of freedom and openness for the authentic pursuit of the Father’s will. Groups are guided by the discernment principles of St. Ignatius of Loyola. In Windsor-Essex & Surrounding Regions: Meetings are held monthly. Please contact Maureen at the Madonna House, Windsor at [email protected]. Please see our bulletin board for more details.
Quo Vadis Vocation Discernment Groups for Catholic Men Quo Vadis is Latin for “where are you going?” Is Jesus calling me to be a Catholic priest? It’s not an easy question to answer. It takes prayer and study to discover your true vocation. Quo Vadis is a discernment group of men, ages 18 to 35, who love Jesus Christ and His Church, and who are willing to talk with other like-minded men about their future. The group meetings aren’t meant to convince you that priesthood is your vocation. You could very well be called to marriage or to another vocation, but openness to God's will is the goal of these groups. If you are interested in joining one of our regional groups, please contact Fr. Patrick Beneteau at 519-432-5726 ext.204, or at [email protected]. or see the bulletin board poster for more details.

The Passing of Bishop Sherlock On Monday, August 12, 2019, the Most Reverend John Michael Sherlock, DD, entered eternal life at the age of 93. Bishop Sherlock was born in 1926, ordained to the priesthood in 1950, ordained to the episcopacy in 1974, and installed as the ninth Bishop of the Diocese of London in 1978. When he became a Bishop, he chose Omnia et in omnibus Christus as his episcopal motto: "There is only Christ: he is everything and he is in everything" (Col. 3: 11). These words guided him throughout his episcopacy and until his last hour. Bishop Sherlock led the Diocese through the final quarter of the twentieth century, a time of social upheaval when the Church searched for new ways to continue its mission. With his leadership, the Diocese adopted a profound shift in the concept of ministry, one which affected not only priests and religious, but the laity and diocesan administrators.
On April 27, 2002, Rome accepted Bishop Sherlock's resignation. He chose to spend his retirement years in the diocese which he considered his home. Even in retirement, he remained active by teaching, conducting retreats and parish missions, helping at parishes on weekends, and participating in diocesan celebrations. He continued hearing confessions and celebrating Mass almost every Monday at the cathedral into late 2018. To read the biography of Bishop Sherlock, please visit www.dol.ca/former-bishops. A number of beautiful photos are also available on the diocesan Facebook page at www.facebook.com/www.dol.ca. Message from Bishop Fabbro on the passing of Bishop Sherlock: “Bishop Sherlock was a true pastor who was close to his priests and his people. In his episcopal ministry over the past 45 years, he gave his life in service of our diocese and the wider Church in Canada. We will miss him, and we pray for him that he will rest in peace.”

Merci beaucoup à toutes les personnes qui apportent des timbres usagés pour aider aux lépreux. N’oubliez pas de laisser une bordure d’environs ½ pouce autour du timbre. Les timbres coupés ou déchirés sont inutiles. Vous pouvez déposer vos timbres dans la boîte sur la table dans le foyer de la salle paroissiale.
Many thanks to all the people who bring used stamps to help lepers. Don't forget to leave a border of about ½ inch around the stamp. Cut or torn stamps are useless. You can put your stamps in the box on the table in the foyer of the parish hall.
