Continually Amazed!



This weekend we had our very first Youth Mass! It was the first time the youth were offered a Mass on a Sunday evening that was really directed at them; it included contemporary music led by our team and we were able to recruit youth to do the readings and altar serve. We were really amazed to see that about 75 people came out, a lot of them were families, and about a third of them were youth! It was a huge success for our first one and we can’t wait to see what happens next month.   

We also got some really exciting news from one of the high schools in our region. Pio and Teresa went and met with one of the principals this week just to introduce themselves; they spoke with one of our contact people and they agreed not to ask for anything because it’s not a Catholic school (in fact, there are no public Catholic schools in Québec). The principal was very open to NET when they went however, and we were given permission to advertise our events in the school and to come and eat lunch with the students once a week! We couldn't believe it and we feel so blessed to have this amazing and unique opportunity!

Also this week, on team day, the ladies baked an apple crisp the guys!

God bless,
