Development & Peace

Bishop Riesbeck is encouraging parishioners to sign a petition sponsored by Development & Peace that asks the government to enact a law that requires Canadian companies to respect the human/environmental rights of local populations in their international operations.

You can learn more about Development & Peace’s annual People and Planet First campaign HERE.

Sunday Missals

2021-2022 Sunday Missals are now available for purchase through the parish office. The cost remains at $5 per copy. To reserve your copy, please email the parish office (holyredeemersj@gmail.com) to arrange a time for pick up. If you know someone without internet access who uses an annual missal, please encourage them to call the parish office (653-6830). Once our initial order is gone, we will not be bringing in additional copies.

If you choose to pay for your missal via e-Transfer (use stpiusx@nb.aibn.com as the email) we can arrange to have your missal available for pick up in the church before weekend Masses. Note: We would have to receive your order and e-Transfer by Thursday (November 18) in order to have them ready for you this weekend.

We pray to the Lord.

For each Confirmation candidate we will present to the Bishop that their faith will always strengthen them and give them joy.
We pray to the Lord.

For Christians persecuted for their faith, especially young Catholic girls in Pakistan, as the Church prays for them on “Red Wednesday” this week.
We pray to the Lord.

For just settlements for workers and for those looking for work.
We pray to the Lord.

For people who are sick at home or in hospital and for each person who has asked for our prayers, especially the lonely.
We pray to the Lord.

For the faithful departed, especially those named in our Book of Remembrance, for those who have no one to pray for them, and for those who have died recently: Fr. Vincent Donovan, William Bastarache, Geraldine Logan, Susan Barsalou, John B. Doiron, Joe Cullinan, Walter Breen, Dermot O’Toole, Francis (Bud) Clarke, Dr. Sohrab Lutchmedial; that they will be welcomed into the fullness of the joy of heaven.
