The situation in Ukraine
We are all distressed and filled with indignation with the situation in Ukraine.
We pray together for an immediate ceasefire and an end to this horrific war.
The Bishops of Quebec encourage the citizens of Quebec to give generously to organizations that provide assistance directly to people displaced and affected by the war.
Those wishing to contribute to this effort may contact Catholic humanitarian aid organizations, such as Development and Peace (Caritas Canada), which has set up an emergency campaign for Ukraine; the Catholic Near East Welfare Association (CNEWA), which is a papal agency active in Eastern Europe; and Aid to the Church in Need, which assists local churches. In this spirit, the Secretariat of Catholic Bishops of Quebec has pledged a donation of $10,000.
Our parish is also collecting certain items to be given to our Ukranian Church in Montreal (which will be sent by the Church to Poland to assist the Ukranian refugees.)
Items to be collected:
– Medical supplies (bandages, wound products)
– Baby Food and Powder milk
– Baby Pampers
– Female sanitary products
A box for these items will be put at the back of the church.
We thank you wholeheartedly for your generosity.
