Advent Bible Study
As Catholics we are blessed to have a God who graciously feeds and sustains us at the liturgy – at not only one but two tables! Jesus gives himself to us through the living bread at the Eucharistic table. But he also feeds us at the table of the Word, where he reveals the love story of God, and invites us to participate with him in the continuation of that story. Just as we are called to “become what we eat” in the Eucharist, so we are also called to discover our own mission in the living Word of God.
So please join us as we explore the Bible during Advent, specifically looking at the Sunday liturgical texts. We will chew on the social, literary, and spiritual context of these readings, and how they might nourish us in living the Gospel in our own lives and communities. We will meet from 10-11am on the four Sundays of Advent (December 1, 8, 15 and 22) in the Papal Suite of the Saint Kateri Student Centre. Please bring a Bible if you have one.
So come and ignite your passion for the living Word! Everyone is welcome.

Following dinner, we’ll enjoy the powerful documentary The Sound of Hope – The Story of Possum Trot. This inspiring film tells the true story of a small, faith-filled community that came together to adopt neglected children, forever changing lives. Halfway through the film, we’ll pause for an intermission to enjoy coffee, tea, and dessert together before continuing with the rest of this incredible story.
We are deeply grateful to the CWL for making this evening possible and for all the ways they bless our parish with their dedication and care. Please join us for this meaningful gathering and invite your family and friends to experience it with us!

Rescue them from bitterness and shame
and refresh them with your love.
Heal the brokeness in all victims of abuse
and revive the spirits of all who lament this sin.
Help us to follow Jesus
in drawing good from evil, life from death.

for the dignity of every human life.
Giver of peace, make us one

Join us for the Canadian Martyrs Catholic Elementary School Advent/Christmas Mass on December 19th! This special Mass will be a wonderful way for the whole school community to come together in celebration of the season and reflect on the hope and joy of Advent as we prepare for Christmas.

We look forward to celebrating this meaningful time of year with you!
CWL Meeting (& potluck lunch)
All women of the parish are warmly invited to join the CWL meeting at their December meeting. Whether you're curious to learn more or ready to get involved, they'd love to see you there!
Bambinelli Sunday
Bambinelli Sunday, celebrated on the Third Sunday of Advent, is a tradition started by Pope St. John Paul II. Families bring the Baby Jesus (Bambinelli), from their home Nativity sets to church for a special blessing. It’s a way to invite God’s grace into your homes, and it reminds us that Christ is at the heart of Christmas.
At all the Masses this weekend, we’ll celebrate this beautiful tradition at Canadian Martyrs. During Mass, Father Gregory will ask you to hold your figurine up and he will walk through the church sprinkling with Holy Water. As you take your Bambinelli home and place them in the Nativity scene, you are symbolically preparing your heart and home for the arrival of Christ at Christmas. Let’s celebrate together, deepening our Advent journey with this cherished tradition!
Advent Bible Study
As Catholics we are blessed to have a God who graciously feeds and sustains us at the liturgy – at not only one but two tables! Jesus gives himself to us through the living bread at the Eucharistic table. But he also feeds us at the table of the Word, where he reveals the love story of God, and invites us to participate with him in the continuation of that story. Just as we are called to “become what we eat” in the Eucharist, so we are also called to discover our own mission in the living Word of God.
So please join us as we explore the Bible during Advent, specifically looking at the Sunday liturgical texts. We will chew on the social, literary, and spiritual context of these readings, and how they might nourish us in living the Gospel in our own lives and communities. We will meet from 10-11am on the four Sundays of Advent (December 1, 8, 15 and 22) in the Papal Suite of the Saint Kateri Student Centre. Please bring a Bible if you have one.
So come and ignite your passion for the living Word! Everyone is welcome.

Mary's Baby Shower: A Heartfelt Tradition of Giving
The spirit of giving and community at Canadian Martyr & McMaster's Saint Kateri University Student Centre is once again shining bright as we gear up for a heartwarming event – Mary's Baby Shower. This cherished tradition, rooted in compassion and the Catholic faith, has been a beacon of support for young mothers in need.
Back in 2019, some of our students from the chaplaincy joined hands to create a special initiative. They lovingly crafted baby items to donate to mothers in need, inspired by the life of Our Lady, who, as a young mother, had very little but a heart full of love. Just like the Holy Family, who sought refuge in a foreign land, these young mothers too face unique challenges and are in need of our help and support.
The students, drawing inspiration from this powerful connection, decided to launch “Mary's Baby Shower.” This heartwarming donation drive is an invitation to the community to contribute much-needed baby items for young mothers who have courageously chosen to give birth despite the pressures to choose otherwise.
At all the Masses on the weekend of December 8th, we invite you to participate in Mary's Baby Shower. We will accept items throughout the week, however. Please bring items such as diapers, wipes, onesies, bibs, and other necessities, along with new infant outfits – all of which will be cherished by these young mothers. Let's remember that every little contribution is a step towards making a difference in their lives.
We kindly request that food items be excluded from the donations. Instead, we ask for your generous support to make 'Mary's Baby Shower' a resounding success. All the items collected will be given to Regina’s Place, a program run by Good Shepherd Ministries.
-
✔ baby wipes
✔ diapers (size 4-6)
✔ any hygiene supplies (e.g., shampoo, body wash, etc.) for adults or children/babies
✔ pencil crayons, markers, pens, small notebooks
✔ laundry soap, fabric softener sheets
✔ craft supplies, e.g., glue sticks, stickers, etc.
✔ bibs
✔ face cloths
✔ receiving blankets
As we approach this beautiful season of giving, let's come together as a community to support and uplift those in need, following the example of Our Lady and the Holy Family. Your contributions will make a world of difference in the lives of young mothers and their precious little ones.
First Friday
On the First Friday of each month, Fr. Gregory, Dcn. Andrew and Sr. Mary will visit those in our faith community who are ill, homebound, or otherwise unable to attend Mass and receive communion. If you or someone you know would benefit from First Friday visits, please get in touch with the office for more information.

Attention to all students and parishioners in the medical field! You're invited to the Catholic Physicians Guild meeting, hosted right here at Canadian Martyrs in Newman Hall.
