Fr. Clarence has been appointed administrator in Blind River. We are very grateful for Fr. Clarence’s ministry here at Precious Blood. On a personal note, Fr. Clarence has been a tremendous friend and support to me, and I will miss him. I have assured him that this is home, and he is more than welcome at any time. Fr. Hamish

I invite you to join me in welcoming Deacon Chad Franklin to our parish. Bishop Dowd has appointed Deacon Chad to Precious Blood in anticipation of his ordination to the Priesthood on August 26 of this year. A local boy, Deacon Chad, is familiar with Sault Ste. Marie and looks forward to getting to know our parish and its parishioners. Chad attended St. Peters Seminary, London, Ontario and graduated with a Master of Divinity degree. As soon as health directives permit, Over the next year or so, Chad looks forward to getting acquainted with the realities of parish life to experience the demands and rewards of serving God’s people. Preparing Deacon Chad for ministry as a priest is not just my responsibility; rather, it is ”OUR” responsibility. I encourage you to make him welcome into the parish and your lives so he can gain wisdom and insight as he integrates his knowledge, skills and personal conviction as he moves closer to his priestly ordination. We will give him a proper welcome as the Church reopens, hopefully in the near future. In the meantime – hold him in your prayer. Fr. Hamish

The Journey

CWL Raises $2,800.00 for the Journey

Hard cover books about the history of the Diocese of Sault Ste. Marie ARE available for purchase in the parish office.....

it has been a busy month for the Journey. A representative of the Journey attended weekend masses on successive weeks at St. Jerome's, Holy Family and St. Veronica,s Parishes to explain the Journey to Parishioners.

Representatives of the Journey will be speaking at all the Masses across the city in the fall to explain how important the Gathering Place will be to all Catholics.

Congratulations to the members of the Parishes that contributed a vast array of goods for the Garage Sale the last two Saturdays and the large group of volunteers who worked so hard to make it such a success

The Journey Committees are working conscientiously to move us forward to success. The committees have representation from the different parishes to create something special for all Catholics.

Focusing on ‘the Journey’ and creating the ‘Gathering Place’ will assist many of us in ‘Rediscovering Catholicism’. Our generation may be the last generation that has known the Catholic Church the center of its community.

Father Hamish presented to Parishioners, last weekend, a plan for pledges over 5 years for contributions to ‘the Journey’. Father has personally committed $10,000 over 5 years.

Father Hamish is introducing a program of donation by Parishioners and our families to raise money for the Journey. Brochures have been distributed with the bulletins and are available in the Cathedral Office
