MEN’S PARISH BREAKFAST GROUP
March 3rd Gathering
Our March monthly Men’s Breakfast was another successful endeavour. Our speaker, Bishop Colli spoke sensitively and forthrightly about the sexual abuse crisis in the Church. He gave a better appreciation of the complexity of the issue and the concrete policies and protocols the Church has in place for concretely addressing the problem. The men stood and raised their hands toward our Bishop as Fr. Marco and Deacon Dennis lead us in a prayer of blessing over Bishop Colli. We also presented him with a card of gratitude for his 24 years of episcopal ministry. Deacon Dennis then led us in singing Bishop Colli’s favourite hymn “Holy is His Name”, the words which he chose for his motto as Bishop. (submitted by Doug McClure).
February 2nd Gathering
The participants in the February gathering of our monthly Men’s Breakfast Group enjoyed each other’s friendship and listened to Deacon Derek West, Deputy Grand Knight of Fort William Council #1447 of the Knights of Columbus who spoke to the men about the principles of the Knights.
This Group gathers each month on the First Saturday at 8:30 am in the Cathedral Auditorium.
Call Doug McClure for more information (708-4143). Many thanks to Vijo Chittilappilly for the photos.
