Dear Parishioners,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your prayers and support during this challenging time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As\n I mentioned in last week\u2019s communication, I will try to stay in contact\n with you, using different means of communication, and at least once a \nweek,\n using written communication. Please see the attached Diocesan documents\n and parish bulletin. As you probably already know, the Liturgies of \nHoly Week will be celebrated without the participation of our \ncongregation: https:\/\/hamiltondiocese.com\/coronavirus-updates<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would like to let you know that Mass is celebrated on Tuesday to Friday at 7 p.m., Saturday at 9:00\n a.m., Saturday Vigil in anticipation of Sunday at 7 p.m., and on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. and streamlined on Zoom, as is the\nDivine Mercy Chaplet, at 3 p.m.<\/strong> (Tuesday \u2013 Friday). Please join me by clicking on this link: https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/5887658626<\/a> This\n link is active only during the celebrations listed above.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are using a mobile phone, you will first need to download the App (Zoom Cloud Meetings). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At\n this time, I would also like to invite you to share any intentions you \nmay have; and if you know\n of any parishioners who are in need of support, let us know that, as \nwell. Please call the Parish Office at 519-743-4525 or email: st.teresa@stteresakit.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nWe\n have received enquiries about how parishioners might support our parish\n without being able to be physically present. To support our parish via \ncredit card,\n please visit the diocesan special Parish\n Offertory Giving Page<\/a>: https:\/\/hamiltondiocese.com\/stewardship-and-development\/supportmyparish<\/a> \n This method of giving will provide you with an electronic tax receipt immediately upon making your gift. You may also send a gift directly to our parish through\n the mail. Continuing\n support of our parish at this time is an act of generosity and faith. \nWe are very grateful for any contributions you may be able to make at \nthis time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this Season of Lent, which has become and extraordinary journey through \u201cthe Desert\u201d, let\u2019s stay united\n in prayer and take every opportunity to deepen our faith and relationship with Jesus. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a blessed Lenten Season.
