Your life CAN make a difference – Discover how with CCO!
The CCO Mission Team is arriving in the English Roman Catholic Parishes of Verdun this week and staying in both Rectories for most of June!
While they're here, you are invited to share your experiences of life and faith with the next generation of Verdun Catholics through Discovery - three weeks of small group discussions run by student leaders from across the country. They’re excited to meet you and these conversations will bring you even closer to Jesus and help you bring others to him!

Update on Masking
As the province is no longer requiring masking indoors, it now becomes a personal choice to mask indoors. We encourage all of you to continue acting with charity and compassion in order to protect our vulnerable parishioners, as you have done so far during the pandemic.
Individuals experiencing symptoms are strongly called upon to isolate themselves, to take a rapid test, and follow the instructions that apply in such cases.
Yours in Christ,
Father Robert Assaly+
