Listening and Discerning Together
An update on our Diocesan response to the pandemic
Join the Redemptorists each Wednesday (from April 15 to May 20) for a Redemptorist Reflection entitled “The Journey from Easter to Pentecost”.
“Celebrating the Death and Resurrection of our Lord.”
The Christian life is best modeled by a three-legged stool, the legs being prayer, community, and service. If any one of those three is missing the whole enterprise gets out of balance.
As a member of Christ’s flock, we are nurtured so that we might be life for others.
Occasionally, life offers us a wake-up call… a chance to enter into the dawn of a new day.

“This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it”
Dear Faithful of the Diocese of Mackenzie-Fort Smith
“This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it”
I will try to meet this question, vast and boundless as it is vast and boundless the “Canadian land”, by turning to my Canadians brothers and sisters and especially to my brothers and sisters of the First Nations, asking: “Please, tell me about your life, about your thinking, and what I can do to let myself be reconciled with you”. Then, I will do my best to walk that way.
I also confidently dare to add: as Representative of the Holy Father in Canada, I know that Pope Francis “is with” the First Nations.
I attend events arranged by the indigenous community. I have attended sweats, powwows, feasts and other celebrations. I periodically go to Mass at Our Lady of Guadalupe (the indigenous parish) and I love their hospitality, the music and the fact that during the sign of peace, everyone leaves their seat to offer greetings to everyone in attendance.
When I hurt someone I go and tell them I’m sorry. I also make use of the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
