Alongside Hope

In 2025, Alongside Hope raised over $170,000 to bring Solar Suitcases— solar powered light and medical tools – to rural clinics in Mozambique and Madagascar. Installations in Madagascar are already transforming nighttime care.

In remote parts of Lesotho, Alongside Hope helps expectant mothers safely reach care by providing maternal waiting homes, transportation support, and essential supplies.

Your donations are much appreciated! Our Lenten fundraiser allowed us to send $1,045 to the Canadian Foodgrains Bank at Alongside Hope. Thank you!

Walking Together in Prayer and Support

Walking Together in Prayer and Support

 

Father Thomas Gatluak is currently in the process of sponsoring his wife and children so that their family may be reunited in Canada after years of separation due to conflict and displacement.

Father Thomas has initiated a GoFundMe appeal to assist with one-time, upfront expenses only, including immigration application fees, required medical documentation, travel to Canada, and initial settlement needs.

Parishioners and friends are invited to hold the family in prayer, to share the appeal within their own networks, and, for those who feel able, to offer financial support.

Further details may be found here: https://www.gofundme.com/u/thomas-tut-gatluak

Flower Calendar

Flower Calendar

To sponsor altar flowers, sign up on the flower calendar posted on the bulletin board in the narthex. As there is room for only one set of flowers on the altar, if someone has already signed up for the date you wish, we request that you choose another date. Cost of flower sponsorship is $60 and is included in the calculation of your tax receipt.

Please contact the office by Tuesday of the week before your sponsorship date to provide your dedication to be printed in the bulletin.
