Abundant graces all around! June 14th was a truly beautiful day as we gathered to thank God for the 2nd anniversary of our beautiful church's consecration, Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church - Strathmore (Roman Catholic Diocese of Calgary). We also joyfully celebrated our Pastor’s 40th birthday and wrapped up with a fantastic Parish BBQ. Thank you to Paola and Jack for bringing their friendly horse, Black Jack, and giving horse rides! We appreciate everyone who made it such a beautiful day - we are truly blessed!

A large contingent of League members from the Calgary Diocese recently attended the Blooms & Blossoms Charity Dinner in support of Elizabeth House — a transitional home that provides sanctuary, community, and hope for pregnant women and mothers experiencing housing instability.

Elizabeth House walks alongside women as they work toward their personal goals, while fostering resilience, leadership, and self-confidence.

The evening was especially moving; a former resident shared her heartfelt testimony, touching everyone in attendance and bringing many to tears.

Happy Feast Day, Our Lady of Good Counsel! 🌿

Even when everything seems to be going wrong, I can fight discouragement through my trust in You. I know that You are a God of surprises—not limited by the way things are or by the paltry possibilities I can see.

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” —Matthew 19:26

Sacred Heart’s CWL was honoured to host the 2026 World Day of Prayer this past Friday, March 6 at our church. Preparing for the event gave us a beautiful new perspective on the women of Nigeria, and the day itself was made even more special by the many community members and Calgary visitors who joined us. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped organize and all who attended—it was a joy to share this time together
