A wonderful thank-you to Elizabeth Finnigan for the donation of a beautiful statue of St. Joseph. The statue has been placed in the church for all to see.

 

In Memory of Roseann Proctor

In Memory of Roseann Proctor

The Whiteside Church Preservation Society wishes to extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Ms. Roseann Proctor upon hearing of her passing. She was a resident of Evanston and a longtime member of St. Francis de Sales parish. Roseann was well known in the area for her outstanding community contributions, including her involvement as a Lay Minister in her parish of St. Francis de Sales, and in the Catholic Women’s League. Burial is at St. Patrick’s Cemetery, Whiteside.

May her soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed rest in peace.

We must also extend a heartfelt thanks to all those who were in attendance. Your presence was a concrete reminder of the importance of St. Patrick’s Church. So many people commented on the wonderful turnout of children and youth. It is a blessing to see multi-generations coming together to celebrate the Eucharist. We hope to see all of you again on July 15th for the Annual Family Mass and Luncheon.

 

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to All!

A very special thanks to Shaun McNamara who built and mounted a beautifully crafted shelf for the church. This will display Our Lady of Fatima statue. This shelf is in memory of Len and Malinda McNamara and Fred Sole, through a donation from Paula Chisholm, Alice Goodrich, and Gertrude Sole.

Thank-you also to Francis MacEachern who repaired a piece of siding on the church this week.

We continue to be honoured by so many special people who share their time and talent to support St. Patrick’s Church. What a true blessing!
