If you would like to book a Mass intention, please look through the available dates (green blocks) and call Marilyn Fernandes at 905-278-2058 or email [email protected] with your selected date and we will get back to you at the earliest.
Please note that we can only book one intention per Mass except for the 9 am Masses on Wednesdays and Saturdays when we have permission to have multiple Mass intentions. If the date you are looking for has already been taken, we could add your intention to the closest 9:00 am Wednesday or Saturday Mass.
WEEKLY VOTIVE LAMP DEDICATIONS
Candles have an important place in our liturgical and spiritual life. But they also play an important part in our devotional life - they show the church at prayer and to pray without ceasing. “St. Athanasius of Alexandria referred to the lighting of votive candles as an ‘offering’ of the faithful. When many of them are alight - whether before an image of Jesus, or Mary, or the saints - it gives great glory to God, who has shared his glory with us.” Each time we light a candle, we are called to remember that it is our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who is the True Light and that He and only He will grant us True Life.
We have 7 votive lamps: 2 at the Tabernacle, 2 at the statue of Our Blessed Mother, 2 at the Sacred Heart Statue and 1 at the statue of St. Joseph. These lamps can be dedicated in memory of a loved one or for a special intention for one week. The names will be published in the calendar, our parish email and newsletter so that your intention can be prayed for by everyone during that time. The cost of the candle is $10 dollars and it will stay lit for one week.
