Glass Door Project Phase 2: Volunteers needed!

We are entering phase 2 of the Archbishops Glass Door Project that we began last year and we need your help. Some of you may remember receiving a phone call or making phone calls about a year ago in phase 1 of this project. We contacted approximately 1000 parishioners but still have many to contact and we need your help. We are all feeling a little more disconnected during these times and we want to connect with as many of our parishioners as possible. Please contact Joanne at the parish office (780-532-2351 or sjc-finance@gpcsd.ca) if you are interested in helping with this Ministry.

Latest Parish Blog: Dispel the Chaos

The biblical story of redemption that we meditate on during Lent and the Easter season displays the truth of an unfathomable love that is good beyond human understanding, and a God who looks at us with loving eyes and says keep going … because, no matter how bad things look, the best is yet to come.
As I reflect on my journey this Lent and Easter I am stunned by the mercy of God and the paradox of faith. We are reminded at the beginning of Lent that Jesus came out of the waters of baptism and the heavens opened and the Holy Spirit came down to remain on him. The voice of God said “this is my beloved … In him I am well pleased.”
