We held special Novena Masses for Christmas commonly known as 'Simbang Gabi' a much-loved Filipino custom last 15-23 December 2022. We would like to thank those who attended the masses, the Filipino choirs and lectors. Special thanks to Fr Paul who initiated the masses and Fr Jayson Gonzales, a Filipino priest who flew from Rome to celebrate the masses with us. It was a truly meaningful celebration that helped prepare us for Christmas. [ngg src="galleries" ids="60" display="basic_thumbnail"]

We sponsored another Christmas Drive last December 22 together with the Caravan de Solidarité, Croix Rouge and College de Leman. Thank you to all those who volunteered and helped. We distributed approximately 200 food bags, school supplies, toiletries and winter accessories to families and individuals who patiently waited in line to receive the packages.
