ALL MASSES TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED

Assumption will stay closed this Sunday

Dear faithful,

last Sunday we were able to open Assumption Church and Resurrection Church and have confessions from 9 am to 2 pm. This Sunday however we are not going to be as blessed. The first half of this week has seen a dramatic increase in the number of COVID-19 cases in Alberta. The chief medical officer in Alberta, Dr. Deena Hinshaw yesterday said, “Over the past two days, despite the aggressive measures already in place, it's become clear that additional measures are needed.” As the situation is slowly getting worse it was decided to keep Assumption Church closed this Sunday.

Therefore confessions will continue to be done on a one to one basis.

Some of you have also been asking how to continue to financially support the chaplaincy now that we have no masses and therefore no collections. The donation button in this website continues to be non operational. It will probably be ready in a few weeks. In the meantime the only way to donate is by mail. You may send checks to:

Vital Grandin Chaplaincy

5116 146 Ave

Edmonton, AB T5A 5B7

This is the new address. If you have already sent donations to the old address, don't worry we will still be able to receive them for a while.

I will keep praying for you and offering my masses for you

May God bless you

Fr. Massimo Botta

 

 

Vital Grandin Chaplaincy

gifts

Named after the Venerable Vital Grandin, first bishop of St. Albert, and acting under the pastoral direction of the Archbishop of Edmonton, the Vital Grandin Chaplaincy has the pastoral care of those faithful of the Edmonton Archdiocese who are attached to the former liturgical rites, called the extraordinary form of the Roman rite, or simply the Traditional Latin Mass.

The chaplaincy, which has been around for over 20 years, was known as the Edmonton Latin Mass Community until recently and since 2005 it has been served by the priests of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP), a society of apostolic life of pontifical rite, established by St. John Paul II in 1988.

Throughout our existence we have continued to slowly grow, and even though we are still what some might consider a small group of devout faithful, we are now averaging 250 Sunday mass goers split between our two Sunday locations.

We welcome everybody and invite you to join us, so that together we may strive to increase in our spiritual lives, our virtues, and love of God through this most majestic of liturgies entrusted to us.

We look forward to meeting you!

Fr. Massimo Botta
Chaplain
