Welcome to The Roman Catholic Parish of Saint John the Evangelist | Archdiocese of Saint Boniface
Update: April 20, 2025
Christ is risen! He is truly risen! Happy Easter, my dear parishioners! May the light of the Resurrection strengthens us
to rise anew and press forward in the midst of personal and societal turmoil……….. The 2nd Sunday of Easter is Divine
Mercy Sunday. Our Altar Servers are doing their Novena starting last Good Friday. Very inspiring, right?.......... We are
invited! The community at St. Patrick Chaplaincy in Manitou is having a special Divine Mercy Sunday celebration. On
April 27th at 2 PM at their church at 532 Fuller Ave., Manitou, there will be Eucharistic Adoration while Confessions
are being heard simultaneously. At 3 PM is the recitation of the Chaplet and to be followed by the veneration of the
1st class relic of St. Faustina……….. From entry 699 of the Diary of St. Faustina, we read of a vision of our Lord revealing
to her: “My daughter, tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge
and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open.
I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. The soul that will go to
Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day all the
divine floodgates through which grace flow are opened. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as
scarlet. My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or of angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity.
Everything that exists has come forth from the very depths of My most tender mercy. Every soul in its relation to Me
will contemplate My love and mercy throughout eternity. The Feast of Mercy emerged from My very depths of tender-
ness. It is My desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the First Sunday after Easter. Mankind will not have peace until it
turns to the Fount of My Mercy.”………. Goods gathered during our Lenten Food Collection were brought to Many
Hands in Morden and Central Station in Winkler last Tuesday. I thank Jewel White and Irene Oliviero for sorting and
packing them in boxes. Joan Forbes, who brought the boxes to their destinations remarked: Everyone [at Many Hands
and at the Central Station] was pleased and excited with what they received… I was once again overwhelmed by the
amount of generosity and support from this parish community. The look on the staff’s faces when I told them that they
would need a bigger cart when they asked me how much donation was, was priceless. They couldn’t believe it when
they saw the amount of boxes. These donations will surely make a huge difference to many, many people in the two
communities and it is all thanks to this amazing parish community. May God bless each and everyone of you.”
