This Weeks' Parish Bulletin
25th Sunday of Ordinary Time - September 22, 2024
The Word of God this Sunday
How the disciples continue to misunderstand the deepest truth about what the “Son of Man” is to undergo! While Jesus is speaking of his impending suffering, death, and rising, the disciples are quibbling over “who [is] the greatest” among them. They are brought to silence twice by Jesus because they still cannot accept the true meaning of who Jesus is and his mission. By embracing a child, Jesus reveals, again and concretely, who he is: the One least among us who has come to serve.

Indigenous Reconciliation Fund Update
The IRF seeks to support projects that are determined by First Nations, Indigenous, and Métis partners that promote healing, dialogue, and education in our local communities. The IRF has awarded 8 grants worth nearly $160K across the Diocese of Peterborough. Help us fund more worthy projects and reach our diocesan commitment of $400K by giving to the special collection on September 21/22. Learn more and donate online at www.peterboroughdiocese.org.
Honeybee Festival, Honey Harbour – Saturday, Sept 28
This year Our Lady of Mercy Church Hall will be the venue for “Repair Café”- 9am- 3pm. This is a new feature at the festival: A place to bring your damaged or broken electronics, household items, small appliances, bicycles and clothing to see if they can be fixed by skilled volunteers. “Let’s repair, share and care for our community and environment together.”
In addition, we are making our Church lot available for parking at the festival.
FROM OUR BISHOP
“A COLLECTION FOR OUR INDIGENOUS RECONCILIATION FUND will take place in the parishes of the Diocese this weekend. We are grateful for your generosity which has enabled us already to fund about a dozen projects in First Nation communities and Metis organizations – part of the Church’s ongoing commitment toward Truth and Reconciliation and “walking together” with Indigenous people. Information about projects already supported can be found on our website where you may also donate online.”
THE CANADIAN CONFERENCE OF CATHOLIC BISHOPS (CCCB) holds its annual Plenary meeting in Quebec City next week. It will be a full agenda and busy week of conversation and collaboration. Additionally, the bishops will also mark the 350th Anniversary of the founding of the Church in North America, with the establishment of the Diocese of Quebec and the appointment of Francois de Laval as its first bishop. Cardinal Gerald Lacroix, Archbishop of Quebec, has prepared a joyful program of festivity this weekend, which will include a Mass of Thanksgiving, concert, youth and family celebration, and passage through the Holy Door of the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Quebec. May this be a time of grace for the Archdiocese and the Church in Canada!
