FR. DEREK CROSS, C.O. 

We wish to thank Fr. Derek once again for celebrating and preaching at Sunday Mass. He has been a great supporter of the Ordinariate and we do appreciate his being available on a regular basis.

BALDWIN ACADEMY

We are pleased to announce that Fr. John Sullivan, S.J., the Pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes, has kindly invited BA to use the parish hall there on Thursday afternoons. We very much appreciate the hospitality displayed by our Jesuit neighbours and hope that we may be able to share in furthering the goal of working with home educating families and others. For the time being, STM Choristers, our children’s choir, will continue to meet after school on Thursdays in Scarborough. Check our website and Facebook Page for details.

CHANCERY TO BE BLESSED IN HOUSTON

Fr. John, as a member of the governing council of the POCSP, is attending the blessing and dedication of the new Ordinariate Chancery in Houston. On Monday he will attend a conference on the new Ordinariate Missal which is in its final stages of approval. The missal will contain the normative rites for Ordinariates around the world.

CANDLEMAS

We will not have a celebration of Candlemas this year on the feast day (tomorrow), but if you have candles to be blessed, please bring them forward at the offertory and Royden, our MC, will place them to be blessed as part of our offertory.

EVANGELIUM 

Individual instruction using Evangelium, a catechetical programme for those wanting to be received into full communion, will be offered again during Lent.  Fr. John will be meeting with some people on Thursdays. Others are invited to prepare during Lent for reception and confirmation during the Easter season. Contact Fr. John if interested.
