Mission Statement
We, the Parish Family of Holy Name of Mary, St. Charles Borromeo & St. Vincent de Paul Churches, believe that our Mission as faithful Roman Catholics is to present the Image or Our Lord to all that he brings to us in this life.
In doing so, we are answering the call, placed before us through the Sacrament of Baptism, to be Missionary Disciples of Christ in this community and as a result assist others in developing a personal relationship with Our Loving and Merciful God.

Consoling the heart of Jesus, small group retreat! Join us at Holy Name of Mary, starting November 22 at 9:30am for a 10 week small-group retreat that delves into the simplicity and grandeur of Consoling spirituality. This retreat is based on the popular book by Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, Consoling the Heart of Jesus. Gain new insights into how you can console Jesus, learn the keys to the great sanctity of the Saints and have all the tools you’ll need to “become a saint, a great saint and quickly.” Please sign up at the back of the church so that we can order the correct number of books.
Helping Hands Food Bank: - - Currently the food bank has a need for cereal, cookies, Canned Chef Boyardee and any canned meat. Also we are in need of medium size fabric grocery bags. If a financial donation is easier, please use provided envelopes that are available at the back of our three churches. And as always we thank you for your support.
Within our three-church parish we have received a gift of a framed image of Mary, Queen of Peace, that has been blessed. Just as Our Lord on the Cross expressed His desire for John to receive Mary as his mother, we too are to receive Mary as our spiritual mother, leading us to her Son. Parishioners are invited to take this picture and hang it in their homes for 9 days welcoming the Queen of Peace into their hearts and their family life. The picture can be picked up and dropped off at the Chapel in Marysville. To schedule your 9 days call Karen Shannon at 613-848-5833.

Dates and Theme for National Family and Life Week 2026 - To assist you in planning for the coming pastoral year, we are pleased to share that National Family and Life Week (NFLW) 2026 will take place from Sunday, 10 May to Sunday, 17 May 2026. The chosen theme, “I am with you always” (Matt 28:20), is drawn from the Gospel reading for the closing Sunday (17 May 2026), the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. We will once again release a digital pastoral toolkit in early spring 2026, featuring activities, pastoral suggestions, social media assets and other resources to help dioceses/eparchies, parishes and related associations and movements with their celebrations for the Week. Mark your calendars and watch for future communications from our Office highlighting this opportunity to celebrate, through prayer and action, the joy and beauty of being family!

The Franciscans: Is God Calling You? - The Gospel and the “following of Jesus Christ” were not idealistic but rather “dynamic values” for St. Francis and his followers. People inspired by the Gospel values that they saw in Francis wanted to follow him. These values are the substance of Franciscans today: the Poor Clares, the Secular Franciscans (for women and men, single or married) and of the Friars.
Is God “calling” you or “inviting you to be a part of the Franciscan mission? Order? Please send an email to Friar Reto Davatz at FrRDavatz@archkingston.ca.
