On this great feast of Christ the King we are celebrating our 60th anniversary as a parish family. Six years ago this weekend Cardinal Ambrozic blessed and dedicated our new church so we chose this weekend to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of our parish. Sixty years ago our original church was a farm house and most this area was farm land. Our first church was completed in 1953. At that time Sheppard Ave. was a two lane road. As a parish family we’ve seen a lot or changes in our church and in our neighbourhood. In the 70’s we redid the church to keep up with the changes in the liturgy that came from Vatican 2. Our last big change was moving to this new church. Some people found that whole process very difficult and went to another parish. It took people a while to be comfortable with our new seating arrangement. But we weathered all that.

This parable about the master who handed over his wealth to his servants in trust can be confusing. We have to remember this parable is not about the stock market or entrepreneurship. It is about the bounty of life itself as well the awesome gift of faith and how we invest these gifts of life and faith in the living of our own lives and the enriching of the lives of others.
In this week’s bulletin, access to the parking lot, the Advent scripture series, and the 2012 offertory envelopes.
