CHRISTMAS CAROLING AND CONCERT PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS! A special invitation is extended to all young people to participate in a very special evening of caroling that will take place on Sunday December 9th. At 5:00 pm, young people and their families will be invited to sing Christmas carols in St. Monicas neighborhood and collect non-perishable food donations for the Food Pantry. Following the caroling, hot-dogs and hot chocolate will be provided in the church hall. Everyone is then invited to come to the church at 7:00 pm. We will all participate in a beautiful Christmas concert with groups as well as solo performances, and end with a selection of popular Christmas carols all can participate in. This is a wonderful way to truly celebrate the joy of the Christmas season with one another, and to give thanks for all that God has given and continues to bless us with. You are all cordially invited to attend! For more information, please contact Odette through the parish office.

Wardens Elections
On Sunday December 2, 2012, following the 11 AM mass there will be a meeting open to all parishioners for the purpose of electing two (2) new wardens. The wardens are the body who, along with the Pastor, are responsible for the fiscal and physical management of the parish. It is important to have as many people who live within the parish boundaries (from Walkey to Beaconsfield and from Cote St. Luc Road to St. Jacques) attend in order to have a legal representation. To stand for election one must reside within the parish boundaries. If you wish to nominate someone, please contact the office or speak to Fr. Ray after you secure their permission. The procedure is the same if you wish to offer your own name: either speak to Fr. Ray or call the office. ADULT FAITH ENRICHMENT Upcoming events
