In his apostolic letter Porta Fidei, Pope
Benedict XVI states: “...We must rediscover a taste for feeding ourselves on
the word of God, faithfully handed down by the Church, and on the bread of
life, offered as sustenance for his disciples (cf. Jn 6:51). Indeed, the
teaching of Jesus still resounds in our day with the same power: ‘Do not labour
for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life’. (Jn
6:27).

- EPIC FILM: RESTLESS HEART – CONFESSIONS OF ST. AUGUSTINE…uses a historic backdrop to tell the true story of Augustine of Hippo – one of the Catholic Church’s most beloved and well-known Saints. It is the story of one who pursues fame and fortune without a moral compass – and the changes that occur when events lead him to see the light. It also chronicles the collapse of the Roman world and how Augustine laid the intellectual foundations of what became Europe. We have secured and are bringing the movie to the big screen on Thursday, November 15, 2012 at 7:00 pm at Coliseum Mississauga. Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at the Parish office. Its message is timely with The Year of Faith. Don’t miss this great story/event!
