A message from Bishop McGrattanSt. Paul knows that life is filled with its ups and downs, that we experience both joy and sorrow, that our faith and love are tested amid trials, and through all of these we come to know that Hope does not disappoint (Rm 5:5)." ~Bishop William T. McGrattan In his reflection, Bishop McGrattan emphasizes the Cross of Christ as the ultimate sign of hope during the Jubilee Year, inviting the faithful to become 'Pilgrims of Hope' and to recognize the enduring love of God in their lives.

Jubilee Year 2025Pope Francis has declared 2025 as a Holy Year of Jubilee for the Catholic Church—a sacred time of renewal, grace, and transformation through God’s holiness. Established by Pope Paul II in 1470 to occur every 25 years, the Jubilee invites Catholics worldwide to deepen their relationship with God, one another, and creation, celebrating the central Christian theme of hope.
In the months ahead, we’ll share opportunities and resources to help you embrace this year of grace in our diocese. Explore about the Jubilee Year, and discover how you can take part in the Jubilee Year of Hope in our Diocese. |

Justice, Healing & ReconciliationWe acknowledge that Treaty 7 territory, on which we stand, is the ancestral land of the Indigenous peoples and is common home to everyone in virtue of God our Creator's gracious gift.
On 8 February 2023, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the following four pastoral letters on reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. Intended as a framework for local engagement with Indigenous Peoples, the letters are the fruit of many months of listening, encounter, and dialogue with them, including through Listening Circles, the Indigenous Delegation to the Vatican in April 2022, and Pope Francis’ Apostolic Voyage to Canada in July of the same year. |
