Dear Parishioners and Visitors:

Following the announcement by the Ontario Government that the Hamilton Region will move to the “grey “lockdown” zone effective at midnight on Monday, December 21, 2020, please note that ALL public Masses are canceled in Hamilton Region beginning on Tuesday, December 22nd for at least two weeks, and until further notice.

At this time we shall continue to celebrate weddings and funerals, but, note that the maximum capacity for such gatherings is 10 persons only.

Fr. Ambroise and I will celebrate Masses ALONE each day and during the solemnities for your intentions.

His Excellency Bishop Crosby has already dispensed all Catholics in the Diocese from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays for the duration of the pandemic. This includes Christmas and New Year’s Masses.

You are encouraged to tune into Salt and Light TV or CHCH TV for the telecast of the Midnight Mass from the Cathedral Basilica of Christ the King. There is also a family resource available on the Diocese of Hamilton Website titled “Christmas Liturgy for Children” which families can use to participate in the Christmas Liturgies during these times.

Please check our website regularly for updates and contact the parish office for any pastoral needs you might have.

Let us continue to pray for an end to the pandemic and for the health and safety of all. We hope to gather again soon.

Peace and blessings of Christmas to you!

Fr. Andrew
