The Archdiocese has been receiving reports of email scammers targeting our parishioners once again. These emails look like they come from a pastor, because the scammers have created fake Gmail accounts in the pastor's name. Typically, they ask the recipient to purchase gift cards for someone in need. Please be assured that our priests NEVER email their parishioners to ask for money or gift cards. If you receive such an email, we encourage you to report it to the
Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (online or at 1-888-495-8501).

The Relic Tour is almost here For the first time ever, the major relics of the Canadian Martyrs are travelling across Canada from the Martyrs' Shrine in Midland, ON. Accompanying them is the relic of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, the first Indigenous North American saint. The relics will be in Edmonton on Wednesday, January 22 at Sacred Heart Church of the First Peoples and Corpus Christi parish. Please share the complete schedule of activities (attached below) with your parishioners. Pilgrims who participate in the Relic Tour at either Sacred Heart Church of the First People or Corpus Christi can receive the Jubilee Indulgence, if they meet the requirements (see How to Receive a Jubilee Indulgence in the Archdiocese of Edmonton below for details)

"I believe" catechesis series starts Feb. 13
The first session of "I believe" is less than a month away. Please share the resources below (bulletin ad - large and small, poster) with your parishioners, starting this weekend. “I believe” is a seven-part catechesis series on the Nicaean Creed, offered in partnership with Newman Theological College and St. Joseph's College-University of Alberta to mark the 1700th Anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea. Each session will be offered at a different parish in the months of March, April, May, September, October and November. I'm just waiting to confirm one parish for May 22 and will then provide a poster with all dates.
