Upcoming Events

Organ Concert, Sherbrooke
On Wednesday, July 8, our organist Louis Brouillette will perform a concert with four other organists from the region as part of the Sherbrooke Cathedral Organ Festival. The concert will take place at Saint-Michel Basilica in Sherbrooke on July 8, 2026, from 5:00-6:00pm. A suggested donation of $20 will be accepted at the door. Louis Brouillette will play solo excerpts from Verdi’s and Mozart’s requiems, as well as the overture to The Phantom of the Opera. For one of the pieces, he will be accompanied by a percussionist. The other organists will perform duets for four hands and four feet.

Bishop Bruce's Tour de l'Ile
All are invited to help Bishop Bruce raise enough funds to purchase three solar panels for St. Luke's Hospital in Nablus, an Anglican-run institution serving a population of 455,000 in the West Bank and in urgent need of a stable and secure electricity source. If he reaches his goal of $2,595, a generous donor will match those contributions so an additional three solar panels can be purchased. For his Alongside Hope Wild Ride challenge, Bishop Bruce will spend one day this summer biking the 70-kilometre Royal Road that encircles beautiful Île-d’Orléans (where he lives), and pause at each of the island’s seven churches (including our own St. Mary's Chapel in Sainte-Pétronille) to offer a prayer for St. Luke’s Hospital and the work of Alongside Hope.

The Liturgical Year

Each week, the worship schedule includes the date and the title of each Sunday based on the liturgical year. The liturgical year is an ordering of days and seasons. The annual cycle determines feast days, periods of penance and celebration, and the parts of scripture read during the Daily Office and Holy Eucharist.

You will also notice a letter that indicates the color that corresponds to the colour of the day. The Church uses liturgical colours to order the year and visualize the seasons. More than just a way to decorate the church and create an aesthetic space, the colours help set the theological emphasis of the season and shape the way we pray in each period.
