First Sunday of Easter ShareLife 2012

Working Wonders For People Locally And Around The World Because of ShareLife, everyone in our region has access to a Catholic Family Services counselling office, regardless of their background. Housebound seniors receive care from Society of Sharing volunteers. ShareLife helps our brothers and sisters overseas through Development & Peace, Canadian Food for Children and the Pastoral Mission Fund. Immigrants and refugees are helped through Catholic Cross-Cultural Services and the Office for Refugees. Priests, deacons and religious workers are trained with ShareLife support at Serra House, Redemptoris Mater and St. Augustines seminaries. With ShareLife, our community is a brighter, happier and safer place for us all. Your ShareLife Gift Will Be Matched! A generous parishioner in the Archdiocese of Toronto will match all new and increased gifts to the 2012 ShareLife campaign, up to a total of $650,000. Help our parish to meet the ShareLife Community Challenge your contribution will help to achieve our parish campaign goal, and maximize the generosity of this parishioner. Please give generously. You can work WONDERS!
