WE ARE A LIVE AND VIBRANT PARISH
Don't bury the talents you've
been blessed with Matthew 25:14
The Parable of
the Talents
"Again, it will be like a man going on a
journey, who called his servants and entrusted his
property to them. To one he gave five talents of money,
to another two talents, and to another one talent, each
according to his ability. Then he went on his journey.
The man who had received the five talents went at once
and put his money to work and gained five more. So also,
the one with the two talents gained two more. But the
man who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole
in the ground and hid his master's money.
"After a
long time the master of those servants returned and
settled accounts with them. The man who had received the
five talents brought the other five. 'Master,' he said,
'you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained
five more.'
"His master replied, 'Well done, good
and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few
things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come
and share your master's happiness!'

CHURCH

maintenance of buildings and property. This group meets
twice a year to assess and prioritize the needs of the

Committee can plan effectively. If you have the required
expertise and can help us in this area, please leave

Responsible
for the finances of the Parish, this committee analyses

in selecting competent tradespeople to accomplish

KNIGHTS
OF COLUMBUS
IF you are
a practical Catholic man at least 18 years old, the
Knights of Columbus may be just what you have been
searching for. You can become as involved as you wish.
Just remember that the Knights offer an opportunity for
fellowship with people who share the same beliefs, and
who recognize the same duty to God, community and family
as yourself. Family is paramount in the Knights of
Columbus; husbands, wives, children and grandchildren.
All Knights of Columbus programs allow families to work
together to aid their church and community while
enjoying the fellowship of other families in the parish.
For more information, please call Doug Meier (905)273-6630.
