Thank you Deacon Robert Kinghorn!
We are tremendously grateful to Deacon Robert Kinghorn who preached at our very well attended Lenten retreat on Feb 28th. Many who attended were deeply moved by his stories of the Church on the streets – his encounters with the homeless and the abandoned, including prostitutes and those who are affected by addiction.
If you would like to hear more of Deacon Robert’s reflection on his ministry on the streets, he is speaking as part of the Lenten series (Days 11-16) offered by the Daily TV Mass: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shfIqI9I-JI
Some of you asked Deacon Robert to share the “Suggestions” of his community of the Transfiguration in Scotland.

Third Sunday of Lent Psalm 95
This psalm is a magnificent song of praise for God, loaded with joy. Its classic psalmic praise for God could easily become our daily prayer for the rest of our lives.
The Exodus story, part of which is our first reading today, can be seen as symbolic of the lives of each of us. In this episode, the people rebel and ask where God is in all this. Has God deserted us?
The answer: God is the rock who is ever with us and giving life. “O come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.”

Second Sunday of Lent
“Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you.”
Psalm 33 is our response to the reading from Genesis about the call of Abram. Could God’s call to Abram also be a call to each one of us? As Abram was called, does God call us all? Each individually, and all of humanity collectively?
As the second reading says: ”God saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace.”
The psalm reminds us to answer with trust, with total confidence in God’s steadfast love. Our hope in God can be limitless because…
“The word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.”
Through ShareLife, you bring hope to those who need it most.
David is a senior who faced overwhelming loss and uncertainty. His wife passed away, his health declined, and he felt forgotten. But in his deepest sorrow, he found hope. When he turned to his pastor, he was guided to Catholic Family Services of Toronto, a Catholic Charities agency you support through ShareLife where he was welcomed with open arms. Because of your kindness, David found the support he needed to heal, regain stability, and rediscover his sense of purpose.
But unfortunately, there are many more like him—seniors facing isolation, families struggling to put food on the table, refugees trying to rebuild their lives, and young parents fighting for a brighter future. Through ShareLife, you help over 40 Catholic agencies bring hope to those who need it most.
The first ShareLife Sunday collection is on March 22nd. Please give at the parish using a ShareLife envelope, online through our parish website, or at sharelife.org/donate.
Thank you to the volunteers who prepared 45 casseroles for February. For March, your prepared casseroles (frozen please) will be collected at the Masses on the Palm Sunday weekend of March 28th/29th for delivery to the Good Shepherd Centre.
More volunteers are urgently needed to help feed the hungry in our city. For more information, please contact Irene Albrecht at 416 221-2791.
Thank you to the parents and the Children’s Liturgy Ministry for helping us share the joy of gardening with our young Parishioners! On April 12th, we will transplant the lettuce seedlings they started into our parish garden.

The Church on the Street: Ministry of Presence Saturday, February 28th, 2026 2:00 to 4:00 PM At the church Preacher: Deacon Robert Kinghorn
Our Lenten Retreat this year will be preached by Deacon Robert Kinghorn, a deacon of the Archdiocese of Toronto. Since 2005, Deacon Robert has ministered in a downtown Toronto neighbourhood known for drugs, prostitution, violence and homelessness. He sees the Church present not only in our beautiful church buildings, but also on these streets, and he felt called to minister there.
His encounters with the downtrodden on the darkest corners of these streets reveal not only the despair and disorder there but also compassion and even hope.
Deacon Robert’s experience will give us a living example of how he, in the footsteps of Jesus, also reaches out to those in the margins and brings the love of God to them. We hope you can join us!
Did you know….
Catholics started the tradition of Lent around the year 325, during the Council of Nicaea. It lasts for 40 days, not including Sundays.
First Sunday of Lent – Psalm 51
Our response in faith to the reading from Genesis is found in Psalm 51.
It reminds us that we are not perfect: God alone is perfect. It sings of the flawless and limitless kindness, compassion and mercy of God. Classic revelations about God which we can think on throughout Lent.
“Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain in me a willing spirit. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise.”
Lent is a time of giving and self-reflection in preparation for Easter. Can you make giving in support of marginalized women in the shelters we support part of your Lenten journey? Please check the list posted at our boxes in the Gathering Space. Thank you so much for your kind consideration of this request. Please remember we are not accepting clothing for the shelters other than those items on our list.

Psalm 119 “Blessed are those who walk in the law of the Lord!”
This psalm extols the law of the Lord. It’s our response to today’s reading from Sirach which advises us to keep the commandments. The greatest commandment is love, both of God and of creation. By the love of God dwelling in our hearts, we can love God and all whom we encounter, indeed all of creation. This very tall order is rendered doable because we are given the ability to do it. The code word here is grace. Gift.
We are grateful for the limitless love God pours into us. So that we can follow God’s law of love.
“Open my eyes, so that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.”
“Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart.”

Psalm 112
To fear the Lord is the first stage of wisdom.
Psalm 112’s ten verses deal with familiar themes such as the fear of God, kindness, and compassion to all others. And in particular, this psalm presents the righteous as steadfast, trusting in God and having nothing to fear.
It’s with this psalm, that we respond in prayer to Isaiah 58: “It is well with the person who deals generously and lends, who conducts their affairs with justice …. their heart is firm, secure in the Lord.”
We do well to ask God in prayer to show us what fear of the Lord really means.
Please note that we are only accepting personal care items including women’s slippers, pyjamas and robes. No other items of clothing are needed. Please check the list posted by our collection boxes. Many thanks for your kind attention and continued support.
“Thank you for your generous hearts, for your witness, and for your continued participation in the ShareLife Parish Campaign. Through you, the Church continues to be present where it is most needed and a beacon of hope and magnanimity. May God’s blessings be abundant and powerful in your lives and your loved ones.”
Sincerely yours in Jesus and Mary, Frank Cardinal Leo
Wednesday, February 11th, 2026
Pope Leo XIV’s message for the 34th World Day of the Sick, which will be celebrated on Wednesday, February 11th 2026, offers a reflection on the theme “The compassion of the Samaritan: loving by bearing another’s pain”.
In his Message, Pope Leo invites us to reflect on the figure of the Good Samaritan. The Holy Father outlines three key points: the gift of encounter, the shared mission of caring for the sick and the primacy of being driven by love for God in encountering ourselves and others.
Visit the website of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops: cccb.ca for Pope Leo’s complete message and reflection.

An online Webinar recommended by the Office for Ecumenical and Interfaith Relations
Participants in this webinar will learn how fear and terror are used by totalitarian regimes to silence opposition by using force and intimidation. The Nazi’s used these tactics against the Jewish people in Germany, and then in countries across Europe. This is a relevant and timely case study for us today as it speaks of the call to be alert to protect and promote religious freedom in society.
This event is geared towards educators and students; however, everyone is welcome to attend.
