This
bulletin will be the last one until September. However, I will publish a
handout half way through the summer. The Mass intentions for daily Mass will be
published on each bulletin board beginning on July 4th. Please note that
morning Mass on July 4th will remain at 8 am. The office will be closed for the
Canada Day holiday on July 4th. On Saturday, July 1st, at 9:15, there will be a
Mass dedicated to Canada Day.
I
would like to congratulate all of our graduates from Queen of Heaven Catholic
Elementary School, St. Dominic Catholic Elementary School and St. Paul Catholic
Secondary School. I would also like to recognize Mr. Annibale Larossi,
Vice-Principal at St. Paul, who will be leaving us at the end of June. Everyone
at St. Dominic parish wishes you and our Graduates best wishes and God’s
blessings.
June
is the time when people move, priests are transferred and school principals are
given new assignments by the Board. That being said, I bid farewell to Mrs.
Caroline Athaide, Principal of St. Dominic Catholic School. We at St. Dominic
Parish have enjoyed a wonderful working relationship with Mrs. Athaide and the
school and I am sad to see her go. Together with our parish, Mrs. Athaide has
been instrumental in fostering a community that expresses the joy and hope of
our catholic faith and visibly symbolizes a deep commitment to academic
excellence, life-long learning and faith development. I wish her every blessing
as she begins her new journey at St. Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Elementary
School in September. Thank-you for the support you have always shown to me and
our parish! I look forward to welcoming our new principal, Julie Tollis, in
September.
