Soul Health, Special Edition: Immerse Yourselves in Holy Week!

Dear Parishioners and Friends,


As Our Lord enters the Holy City, let us enter with him and journey through Holy Week to the foot of the Cross. Our full Holy Week schedule is below, so you can plan a fruitful and grace-filled week!


Tonight at Saint Willibrord Parish: Reconcile yourself to God through Confession, and follow Christ into the tomb through Tenebrae

You can learn more about Tenebrae by reading this article: https://bit.ly/3O6bXS4 -- but why stop there? After the Reconciliation Liturgy at 7:30pm, join fellow parishioners of the English Roman


Catholic Parishes of Verdun tonight to experience Tenebrae yourself, where all will be led in prayer by Professor Brian Butcher through this ancient and beautiful liturgy.

Tonight: Religious Roots of the War in Ukraine, by our very own Professor Brian Butcher This free event at the McGill School of Religious Studies focuses on East Slavic history with special attention given to the determinative role that the Orthodox and Byzantine-Rite Catholic communities have played therein.
