Parish message of the week,

1. Oure new Season of Lent begins this week with Ash Wednesday, March 1^st. There will be a special Mass in English with the Distribution of Ashes at 7:30 p.m. in the 1/F chapel of the parish centre.

2. Next Sunday, the First Sunday of Lent, the adult catechumens who have completed their training and who will be baptized at this year’s Easter Vigil will be formally enrolled in the Rite of Election during the 12:30 p.m. Mass. Our first year catechumens will also be formally enrolled in the Catechumenate at the same Mass. Please note that given the large numbers of both groups and their sponsors, a number of pews will be reserved – we ask for your cooperation in not sitting in these spaces.

3. A new edition of the parish Bulletin in English has been issued this weekend. Remember to take a copy for your family at the doors of the church.
