Letter From Our Pastor

Welcome to Holy Spirit Parish’s webpage! You are most welcome to join us anytime.

Message from our Pastor:

Welcome to Holy Spirit Parish! We are a vibrant, Roman Catholic Church with parishioners from diverse cultures who gather to celebrate our faith, to support one another and the wider community in prayer and action. The parish has many different ministries and activities catering to children, youth and the adult population of our community. Our patron is the Holy Spirit and we pray the Spirit will guide, inspire and equip to live our faith in a joyful, authentic way that bears witness to the truth and beauty of the Gospel. Archbishop Marcel Damphousse has encouraged our archdiocese to walk together in a time of renewal of our faith communities with these invitations: “Go out, Go Deep, Go Together.” Please join us as we work together to foster a welcoming, dynamic and faith-filled parish community! May God bless you and may the Holy Spirit be your constant companion and helper.

Sunday Reflection:  23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Sunday, September 6, 2026

The one who loves another has fulfilled the law.

Reflection

Jesus tells us today:  “for where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”  God designed us for relationships – with Him and with others.  We have an inborn need for relationships; not only to receive love but to give our love to others.  Moreover, there is something very powerful about gathering together in Christ’s name to pray because if we are praying and acting in his name together, he is here with us at that very moment.

Father Geoff
