MESSAGE FROM FATHER JIM

A warm welcome to everyone on the return to a regular mass schedule at St. Columbkille’s Cathedral.  My prayerful wishes have been, and continue to be dedicated to you all, for your health and safety, as we resume our activities with judgement and caution.  As we progress, we will keep you updated on various changes as these occur.

Thank you for your weekly donations during the pandemic.  Your donations are gratefully appreciated.

We now have a website for St. Columbkille’s Cathedral.  It is accessed at: ww.cathedralparish.ca for your information.

Installation as Bishop of Pembroke

Bishop Guy Desrochers will be installed as Bishop of Pembroke, Friday, July 3^rd, 2020.  On account of the restrictions necessitated by COVID-19, this will be a small, private ceremony, with few people present.  It will be recorded for broadcast online. A public liturgical celebration will be planned for a later date, when it will be possible to gather a large number of people.

Chronicle from Bishop Guy Desrochers C.Ss.R.:

Theme for Sunday, June 21^st

The Courage of Conviction:  Stand Tall!! Jeremiah faced with a serious threat to his life, remains confident of God’s power and will to save him.  Jesus encourages his disciples to have similar courage in the face of persecution, with, as Mathew writes his gospel, is already occurring.  A celebrated and controverted passage from Romans on our inheritance from Adam is our second reading today.
