Due to COVID you will not be able to write the names of your deceased family members and friends in our Remembrance Book. We are using all of the previously added names to fill this year’s book. If you would like to add someone who has died since last November, you can email us at stpiusx@nb.aibn.com and we will add them to the list. The book will be placed on the altar and will be handled only by Msgr. Henneberry.
Bishop Riesbeck will celebrate an All Souls commemoration service at Saint Joseph’s Cemetery, 327 Westmorland Rd., on Tuesday, November 2, 11 am. In the case of poor weather, the service will be a part of the 12:10 pm Mass at the Cathedral.
Reminder: You can still participate in the Synod. You are encouraged to fill out a survey on the Diocesan website. The results will be summarized and sent to Rome. The survey, as well as other information on the Synod, is available at the link below:

Reminder: Our Christmas Dinner Collection begins this weekend.
Once again this year we will not be taking applications for Christmas Dinners due to COVID-19.
However, we will be accepting donations to help with dinners. All monies received will be passed on to the Christmas Exchange, and you will be credited for income tax purposes by us. The Exchange will distribute these funds to the organizations that can physically meet with applicants in our area who need help.
We are late starting this year, so we encourage you to make your donations as soon as possible. We would like to pass along donations early in November so that the Christmas Exchange can determine just how many families will benefit.
Please place donations in an envelope marked Christmas Dinners, and make any cheques payable to Holy Redeemer. Thank you for your help.

Public Health has informed us of a possible COVID-19 exposure at St. Pius X Church / Holy Redeemer Parish during a funeral on Wednesday, September 29, between the hours of 12 pm – 2 pm.
If you weren’t present at this funeral, you have no need to be concerned. If you were present, Public Heath advises that you self-monitor for any symptoms for 14 days after the date of the exposure. Our upcoming weekend Masses are not affected, and will proceed as scheduled with all usual COVID precautions.
We are still without teachers for multiple grades of our Religious Education program. Without teachers, we will be unable to offer classes for those grades. If you are available to volunteer as a teacher or teaching assistant on Sunday mornings from 10 am – 11 am, please consider helping. Please contact the parish office (653-6830 or stpiusx@nb.aibn.com) if you can assist.
Contact tracing forms are now located in each pew. Monsignor Henneberry explains why we will now be requiring parishioners to fill out these forms each time they attend Mass at St. Pius X Church / Holy Redeemer Parish.
