CMCES Grad Mass
On Wednesday, June 19, during our regular afternoon Mass at 12:30 pm, we will have the pleasure of welcoming the Grade 8 students from Canadian Martyrs Elementary School as they celebrate their graduation. This special occasion marks an important milestone for these young members of our parish community.
We invite all parishioners to join us and share in the joy of this moment. Your presence and prayers will be a wonderful support to our graduates as they prepare for the next chapter of their lives. Let's come together as a parish community to celebrate their achievements and pray for their continued growth in faith and knowledge.
We look forward to seeing you at Mass on June 19!
