UPCOMING MEETINGS/EVENTS
Advent Wreath: Advent has
begun! The second purple candle
represents faith. It is called the
“Bethlehem Candle” as a reminder
of Mary and Joseph’s journey to
Bethlehem.
C’est aujourd’hui le deuxième dimanche de l’Avent. La chandelle violette, la « Chandelle de Bethléem »
représente la foi. C’est un rappel du voyage de Marie
et Joseph à Bethléem.

Family of Parishes News Update
Scent Notice: It has come to our
attention recently that some people are not following this policy. A reminder that
our 3 churches are SCENT FREE. Parishioners are asked to respect those who have allergies to various scents. Please refrain from the use of scented products, especially perfumes and colognes. We really would appreciate your consideration as this DOES affect some
parishioners and their ability to attend Mass.
Nos 3 églises sont désignées des zones sans parfum. Certaines personnes ne respectent pas cette politique. Des gens souffrent d’allergies sévères aux parfums. Nous vous demandons d’être sensibles à ces gens en évitant de porter des parfums lorsque vous assistez à la Messe ou à une réunion dans l’une de nos trois paroisses. Nous vous demandons de respecter cette politique car cela affecte certains paroissiens et leur
capacité d’assister à la Messe.
Email Transition: At this time, the
Diocese has transitioned our email to a
newer version of Outlook. As you can
imagine, with all the employees in the
Diocese and the overload, we’re
experiencing some road bumps. Please
bear with us as we try to recover our email addresses
and emails. With that being said, the E-Bulletin was not
sent out this week. Please see our Family of Parishes
website for the latest online bulletin. If you are in need
of contacting the office, please do so via telephone.
Thank you!
Le diocèse est présentement à changer nos courriels, ce
qui a occasionné des problèmes. Pour cette raison, le
bulletin électronique n’a pas été envoyé cette semaine.
Vous pouvez le trouver au site web. Il se peut que vos
courriels ne se rendent pas au bureau pendant cette
période de transition. Veuillez communiquer avec le
bureau par téléphone. Merci de votre patience.
Bulletin Ads: There are 3 spots left
for advertisements in the bulletin. They
will be given on a first come first serve
basis. Please contact the parish office
for more information.
