Structures Supporting Sponsor Canadian Societe Cancer canadienne Society du cancer St. Columban the last residing pastor at St. Columban parish, came recently to celebrate the eucharist with the parishioners. In the homily, he reminded the parishioners of the need to remember, to mourn and to celebrate. Sharing some memories of the good times and sad times, he evoked strong memories. In linking to the readings of the liturgy, he reminded the people of the difficulties experienced by the apostles in the early church and urged them not to give up on their faith in Jesus just because of the difficulties they are experiencing at the present time. After the mass, everyone gathered outdoors for refreshments and a social time together and to visit with Father Hardy. Bishop Anthony Daniels, who served St. Columban parish a few years ago before being made a bishop by coming on Sunday mornings to celebrate eucharist at that time, is coming this Sunday, June 19. Mass time for this occasion will be 10 a.m. Everyone is welcome to attend. A social time will be held after this mass. There are two final projects to mark the closing of St. Columban parish. One of the projects is a St. Columban parish cookbook, coordinated by Fran Malone and Claire Murray. Many past and present parishioners contributed recipes to the cookbook. The second project is a video prepared by Angela Smith. It will include the final mass, pictures of all' parts of the church as well as pictures of parish events, past and present.
