Welcome to The Roman Catholic Parish of Saint John the Evangelist | Archdiocese of Saint Boniface
Update: October 5, 2024
Thanks to your prayers, my trips going and coming from holiday has been fine. There were no ridiculous delays or any
major inconveniences. My vacation was wonderful as well. I did not make any outside trips outside of our island
province of Bohol, Philippines, instead I made frequent visits to friends and relatives. I also saw to it to join the priests
who gather on Tuesdays at the Bishop's residence for their day off. It's then that I got myself updated with the latest
affairs in the diocese............ As the 2024-2025 Catechism cycle begins, I would like to point out the generous
sacrifices of our Catechists. They are 100 percent volunteers and are sacrificing part of precious family time during
weekends to educate our children in the faith. Therefore, I would like to encourage everyone, especially the parents
of the children in the Catechism classes, to match their self-giving. How? By paying the requested dues, by bringing
your children promptly and always to the classes, and by making follow-ups on the lessons. Remember, dear parents,
that you are the primary catechists of your children. So, it is imperative that you see to it that your children are
learning and reinforce the lessons by your example in day to day family life........... Our team of Catechists is composed
of the following: Susana Hawryshko, John Catibog, Kitin Cayona, and Sia Tuikuka. The Assisting Catechists are: Irene
Oliviero, Pamela Versoza, Eduardo De Paula, Patti Rothenburger, and Melanie Howe. They will renew their
commitment to their apostolate within the 11 AM Mass...........October is Holy Rosary Month. In fact, tomorrow,
October 7, is the Feast of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. I would like to encourage all families to pray this devotion
every day. Needless to say, the situation of the world calls for the powerful intercession of the Queen of Peace...........
The Sunday evening Mass resumes today, October 6. As it was in the past, it will be celebrated at 6 PM.
