The Search Committee is working hard on compiling the various sections of the Parish Profile.

As previously stated, this document will form the basis of the information that will be advertised to potential applicants.  Each person / group of people have taken responsibility for the various sections that will be included in the profile and many of these have now been completed.  It is hoped that the profile can soon be submitted for a final edit and then on to Bishop Steve for publication.

Survey results from both online and in person submissions (on the flip charts in the Lower Hall) have been compiled over the last week

If you have questions or wish to add any more thoughts with regard to the profile, please feel free to contact any one of the search committee members:

Steve McAuley, Mikaela Hanley, Joe Sparling, Pat Jameson, Megan Crane, Christa McMillan, Amy Kellestine, Annie McKitrick, John Vandenbeld, John Hanley, Aaron Parker, Amanda McAuley. Cheryl Tyler and Israel Flesaker.

Flip charts with the same questions (and markers) will be in the Lower Hall during Coffee Time this week and next, if anyone wishes to add their views in this manner, and Simone is going to use the questions to get input from attendees at Kids’ Church as well.

We look forward to hearing from as many parishioners as possible.

Start Location:  10821 - 96th Street, Sacred Heart Church 

The Outdoor Way of the Cross is an ecumenical prayer event marking the suffering and death of Jesus.  It is a time to reflect on how the gospel values of Jesus apply to individual and public life today.  This year's theme is based on Matthew 25:40  "Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."

People of all faith traditions are welcome to attend.  The 1.5 kilometre walk is reasonable for most ages and ability levels.  Free street parking is available near the start location at Sacred Heart Church of the First Peoples.  A light lunch (soup, bannock, coffee and tea) will be provided at Sacred Heart Church after the final station.  Donations of non-perishable food items for local food banks are also welcome and can be dropped off at the start of the walk.
