SUNDAY OFFERINGS (June 7^th 2020)

Dear Parishioners,

I pray that you are keeping safe and healthy during

this time of pandemic, isolation and social

distancing. Please know that I continue to

celebrate weekday mass and pray for our parish

and for each of you. It is our faith and our sense of

responsibility to protect each other that will help

us get through this.

While our opportunity to gather together for Mass

has changed, we are thankful that technology has

permitted us to still celebrate our Sunday Mass

together through YouTube and our website. We

are all adjusting how we gather and how we

communicate.

While the pandemic continues around us, so too

are we all facing challenges including financial,

mental health, and wellbeing. While we are not at

Mass weekly, our Parish expenses continue and

without our regular collection and donations, we

face a decline in revenue. I ask you to give

consideration to continued financial support for

St. Patrick’s in this time of crisis. We have

established a system to allow contributions

through credit card, as well as through cash or

cheque contributions. Please just contact the

Parish office should you wish to make a one time

or weekly contribution. We are now able to accept

E-Transfer. Please email: [email protected] or

[email protected]

Please know that I am only a phone call away

should you wish to reach out for a conversation or

spiritual or wellbeing support. While we cannot

meet in person, we all recognize the importance of

being there for each other.

God Bless you all
