Sunday Gospel: Today's gospel is about mercy and forgiveness. Jesus tells us that even when facing death, what really matters is having faith and a humble heart, not how good or bad your life situation is. Jesus can save people right up to the moment of death.
Évangile du Dimanche : L'évangile d'aujourd'hui porte sur la miséricorde et le pardon. Jésus nous dit que même face à la mort, ce qui compte vraiment, c'est d'avoir la foi et un cœur humble, et non pas la qualité de notre situation de vie, qu'elle soit bonne ou mauvaise. Jésus peut sauver les gens jusqu'au moment même de leur mort.

Every child is created in the image and likeness of God—unique, precious, and deeply loved.
In our Catholic schools, we nurture this truth each day by forming students in kindness, compassion, and responsibility.
Guided by our faith theme, Do Small Things with Great Love, and the Catholic Social Teachings, we help students understand the dignity of every person and how their small acts can make a big difference.
Together with families and parishes, we work to create school environments where every child belongs and where Christ’s love is visible in the way we greet, support, and care for one another.

Sunday Gospel - Today's gospel is a message of both warning and hope. To not fall prey to false prophets, to remain in a state of hope. We must hold onto faith that God is near, even when the world feels overwhelming.
Évangile du dimanche - L'évangile d'aujourd'hui est un message à la fois de mise en garde et d'espérance. Ne pas être la proie des faux prophètes, demeurer dans l'espérance. Nous devons garder la foi que Dieu est proche, même lorsque le monde semble accablant.

Sunday Gospel: Today's gospel comes from the gospel of Luke, when Jesus went to the temple and told the people to stop making His Father's house a marketplace. Fr. Rene reminded us of the importance of church...that CHURCH without the "U" (you) is no church at all. That it is the people that make church, it is our community.

Le Père René nous a rappelé l’importance de l’Église… that CHURCH without the "U" (you) is no church at all. Ce sont les gens qui font l’Église, c’est notre communauté.

What a blessed week! On Wednesday, we gathered with Fr. Rene for a special Mass of Thanksgiving. His message was a beautiful reminder to always have grace, practice gratefulness, and be giving, because we always have so much to be thankful for.
The joy continued as we celebrated our Grade 4s receiving their Bibles! Fr. Rene taught them that BIBLE stands for: Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. The students were so excited to start this new chapter of their faith journey and learn more about Jesus.
Thank you, Fr. Rene, for sharing in both of these special celebrations with us!

Sunday Gospel - Today Jesus emphasizes that He will promise and make a commitment to never reject or turn away from those who come to Him. He will be alongside them eternally. A beautiful reminder that Jesus is always with us, and will never leave us.
Évangile du dimanche – Aujourd’hui, Jésus souligne qu’Il promet et s’engage à ne jamais rejeter ni éloigner ceux qui viennent à Lui. Il sera à leurs côtés pour l’éternité. Un beau rappel que Jésus est toujours avec nous et ne nous abandonnera jamais.
