THE CHURCH IS NOW FULLY OPEN AND

MASKS ARE OPTIONAL

Message from His Eminence Thomas Cardinal Collins

“The Eucharist remains the source and summit of our life in Christ. For Christians, participation in the Sunday Eucharist is the central experience of the week, and that is the foundation for the obligation of every Catholic to be personally present at Mass every Sunday”.

Together with His Eminence Thomas Cardinal Collins we invite you “to return to physical presence at Sunday Mass, if not impeded for a legitimate reason, in keeping with our basic Sunday obligation as Catholics”.

PRAY FOR UKRAINE

Let us pray for Ukraine and for peace in the world

HUMANITARIAN RELIEF FOR UKRAINE

Donations to help Ukrainians who are suffering due to this war would be most appreciated.

The Archdiocese of Toronto will channel donations to support the Office for Refugees, Archdiocese of Toronto (ORAT) and the Catholic Near East Welfare Association (CNEWA). CNEWA is a papal agency with a long history of humanitarian relief; it is currently working in Eastern Europe, providing Ukrainians with food, shelter, medicine and transportation to safe locations. ORAT is Canada’s largest private Sponsorship Agreement Holder, which helps bring hundreds of newcomers to our country each year; it will use donations to bring Ukrainian refugees to Canada as soon as possible.

Your donation will help Ukrainians who are beset by violence in Eastern Europe and it will help some of them find a new home in Canada.

Those wishing to help may do so in the following ways:
