Alpha is a series of interactive sessions exploring the basics of the Christian faith. Each session looks at a different question and is designed to create conversation. There’s no pressure, just an open, informal, and honest space to explore and discuss life’s big questions together.
Alpha Week 3 is this Sunday, October 20, from 9:30 am to 11:00 am.
Start the day with a delicious (and varied! Look forward to some quiche this weekend) breakfast followed by a short, thought-provoking video "Why did Jesus die?", and then small group discussion.

We ask you to prayerfully consider if God is calling you to serve in this most needed ministry here at Canadian Martyrs.

WORLD MISSION SUNDAY is celebrated this Sunday, October 20th! This year it is marked in the context of the Extraordinary Mission Month which was inaugurated by Pope Francis on October 1st. “The missionary mandate touches us personally: I am a mission, always; you are a mission, always; every baptized man and woman is a mission. People in love never stand still: they are drawn out of themselves; they are attracted and attract others in turn; they give themselves to others and build relationships that are life-giving. As far as God’s love is concerned, no one is useless or insignificant. Each of us is a mission to the world, for each of us is the fruit of God’s love!” (Excerpt from Pope Francis’ letter of June 9, 2019, Pentecost Sunday, in which he convoked the Extraordinary Mission Month.)

His franchise was located in a predominantly Roman Catholic neighbourhood, so he created the Filet o' Fish to make sure that Catholics were getting under those golden arches every day of the week...
