We are currently looking for a few volunteers who are willing to help with regular trips to Costco for our Outreach Ministries. Shopping trips will be made with Veronica, our Coordinator of Outreach Ministries, and last a few hours. Ideally, this volunteer has access to a mid-sized SUV to be able to accommodate all of the supplies we need in one trip!

Team Leads:
We are currently looking for a few volunteers who are willing and able to help support our Outreach Ministries beginning in the fall. Ideally, this volunteer would be capable of leading a small team on an  occasional basis, and help lead service in the kitchen during exceptionally busy times.

Volunteer Opportunity: Coffee Hour

As we look ahead to the fall, we are currently recruiting new team leads for our Coffee Hour, which takes place following the 10:30am Sunday Mass. If you are able and willing to volunteer on a regular basis, please contact Michael at michael.pirri@utoronto.ca

Upcoming 2nd Collection: Canadian Missions

There will be a second collection for Canadian Missions this weekend, August 13-14. Catholic Missions in Canada and the selected dioceses in Northern Canada will benefit from your generosity to sustain and extend the Catholic faith to isolated, poor and hard-to reach mission areas in our country.
 
Thank you for your support of this important work!

Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (R.C.I.A.)

Are you, or someone you know, interested in joining the Catholic faith? The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, or R.C.I.A., is the process by which:
  • a person who is not a baptized Christian can become Roman Catholic;
  • a person who is baptized in another Christian denomination can be received into the Roman Catholic Church; or
  • a person who was baptized in the Roman Catholic church can complete their initiation through the sacrament of Confirmation.
If you are interested in finding out more, please contact michael.pirri@utoronto.ca.
