PROJECT HOPE
Although most of us can point to a person in our lives
whom we consider wise, we are using a human
standard to measure wisdom. True wisdom, however,
comes from God and enables us to live as intended by
our Creator. Jesus teaches us to seek a childlike faith so
that we are able to readily accept the truth, which sets
us free.
We welcome into our Christian Family

May God Bless and guide these little ones
through the faith and example of their parents,
godparents and family.
In response to the global refugee crisis, Cardinal
Thomas Collins has launched “Project Hope,” a
special emergency appeal. This 100-day campaign
aims to raise $3 million in order to settle 100
refugee families in the Archdiocese of Toronto as
soon as possible. The effort will also require 100
volunteer committees to assist with settlement
services. To make a donation to support the
appeal, visit: www.archtoronto.org or call (416)
934-3411. You can also donate through our parish
with a cheque made payable to NAME OF
PARISH – PROJECT HOPE – REFUGEE
SPONSORSHIP. We continue to pray for all those
suffering, mindful of our call to welcome the
stranger in our midst. Those interested in assisting
with volunteer committees should contact the
Office for Refugees at (647) 780-0827
Today there will be a second collection.

special Liturgy of the Word at the beginning half
of our weekly Masses at 5:00 pm on Saturdays and

become a teacher in our Catholic schools should
take this opportunity to gain experience and

XXV DOMENICA DEL
TEMPO ORDINARIO
Il santo battesimo ci ha inseriti nella morte del
Signore, ci ha resi conformi
al suo sacrificio. Questa è la
radice della nostra esistenza
cristiana, la sua sorgente
profonda: il frutto deve
essere l’umiltà, l’esistenza
che ne sgorga deve essere
un’esistenza donata nel
servizio. È questo un punto
centrale della vita cristiana.
In essa, e dunque nella Chiesa, la logica delle
“precedenze” è completamente rovesciata: il primo
è colui che si fa il servo di tutti, come Gesù, il cui
primato è stato posto dalla sua obbedienza ed
immolazione sulla croce. La vera dignità è nella
possibilità offerta all’uomo di imitare l’umiltà del
Verbo Incarnato. Una conseguenza sconvolgente:
il piccolo è il “sacramento” di Gesù e quindi in lui
accogliamo il Padre.

PROGETTO SPERANZA
In risposta alla crisi globale dei rifugiati, il
cardinale Thomas Collins ha lanciato il “Progetto
Speranza”, uno speciale appello d'emergenza.
Questa campagna di 100 giorni si propone di

100 famiglie di rifugiati dell'Arcidiocesi di
Toronto al più presto possibile. Lo sforzo
richiederà anche 100 comitati di volontari per
assistere con i servizi di integrazione. Per fare una
donazione per sostenere l'appello, visita:
www.archtoronto.org o chiama il numero (416)
934-3411. Puoi anche donare attraverso la nostra
parrocchia con un assegno intestato a NOME
