September 29th is the Feast of Saints Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, the Archangels. In commemoration, all are invited to join us this weekend, September 23rd and 24th, after each Mass for a social gathering in St. Michael’s Parish Hall.

Mass times at St. Michael’s are: Saturday 5 pm; Sunday 8 am, 10 am, and 12 noon. We thank the Social Committee for organizing this event.
In a special way, we keep in our prayers St. Michael’s Parish of the London North Central Catholic Family of Parishes. 

St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and 
snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. 
Amen.
 

An 8-week Bible Study is being offered Tuesday evenings from October 3rd to November 28th, 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm at St. Michael's Parish Hall.  It is also being offered by Zoom Thursday afternoons from 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm starting on October 5th. We will be studying Ephesians: Discover Your Inheritance.  “Ephesians was one of the most widely circulated of St. Paul's writings because of its powerful, practical instructions for disciples of Christ. The Study examines many important themes that are still relevant in today's Christian culture and society – the nature of marriage, the purpose and role of the Church, the prominence of grace in God's plan, and the reality of spiritual warfare.”   

Ephesians: Discover Your Inheritance shows us the treasures that await us as adopted sons and daughters in the family of God.”  This study includes: reading the Bible, answering workbook questions, discussion with a table group or on-line Zoom group, followed by a 20 to 30 minute video hosted by Biblical scholar Jeff Cavins.

To sign up or if you have questions, please email Gerarda Smith-Hillier at gimish3@gmail.com. The cost of the workbook is $40.00. If you require support to purchase the workbook please contact Gerarda. We would never want the cost to be a factor in your decision to join us. All are most sincerely welcome !

“Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” -Ephesians 4:29

Beginning this Pentecost Sunday (May 28, 2023) and running until next Pentecost (May 19, 2024), our Diocese will be celebrating a new prayer campaign: A Year of Prayer for Vocations to the Priesthood. Bishop Fabbro has written a letter to the Faithful that can be found here.

On 8 February 2023, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops issued four pastoral letters on reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. Intended as a framework for local engagement with Indigenous Peoples, the letters are the fruit of many months of listening, encounter, and dialogue with them, including through Listening Circles, the Indigenous Delegation to the Vatican in April 2022, and Pope Francis’ Apostolic Voyage to Canada in July of the same year.

The Veritas Lecture Series engages speakers from a variety of backgrounds to explore the depth of human experience and to articulate the truth – the fullness of humanity – to which we each aspire. The Catholic Intellectual Tradition welcomes and embraces this exploration as a means of participation in the common good that enhances this world we share.  This year’s theme will be "Reconciliation: From Head to Heart." All lectures will take place in the Joanne & Peter Kenny Theatre (in the Student Life Centre). Parking and admission free.
