A Blessed Celebration of Faith, Thanksgiving, and Joy ✨

Last Saturday, June 6, 2026, our Parish of the Holy Child community gathered at All Saints Kingsway to celebrate the Holy Eucharist, reflecting on the Gospel of Matthew 9:9–13, 18–26, where Jesus calls us to follow Him with faith, compassion, and unwavering trust.

As we prayed together and shared in the Eucharistic celebration, we were reminded of Christ’s invitation: “Follow me.” (Matthew 9:9)

Our gathering was made even more special as we offered a Thanksgiving Prayer for the graduation milestone and birthday celebration of Francine Adriousula. We thank God for His abundant blessings, guidance, and faithfulness in her life, and we pray that He continues to lead her with wisdom, strength, and grace in every step of her journey.

May the Lord continue to bless our parish family as we walk together in faith, hope, and love, becoming instruments of His mercy and healing in our community.

Congratulations, Francine, on your graduation, and happy birthday! May God grant you many more years filled with joy, purpose, and countless blessings. 🎓🎉🙏💙

Celebration of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity❤️🙏

Last Saturday, May 30, 2026, our faith community gathered in joyful worship to celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity through a meaningful Eucharistic Service at All Saints Kingsway.

As we reflected on Matthew 28:16–20 and Christ's Great Commission, we were reminded of our calling to live out our faith, share God's love, and serve others in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Together, we prayed, worshipped, and renewed our commitment to Christ's mission in our families, communities, and beyond.

At the same time, members of our community participated in an Outreach Mission in St. Catharines, Ontario, bringing the spirit of faith into action through service, solidarity, and accompaniment. Through both worship and outreach, we witnessed the many ways God calls us to serve and love one another.

We were also blessed to share a special Thanksgiving and Baby Shower Celebration in honour of Johnna and Mark Gonzales, giving thanks for God's abundant blessings and celebrating the precious gift of new life. It was a beautiful gathering filled with joy, prayers, fellowship, and gratitude as we celebrated this wonderful milestone with their growing family.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, volunteered, prepared food, offered prayers, and helped make the day a meaningful and memorable celebration of faith and community.

"And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age." (Matthew 28:20)
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit continue to guide our lives and ministries as we seek to be faithful disciples in the world.

❤️🙏 Blessed Trinity Sunday to all!

**Pentecost Migrants Mass & Fellowship | May 23, 2026** 🕊️❤️

Last Saturday, our faith community at **Parish of the Holy Child – IFI GTA** gathered in a beautiful celebration of the **Solemnity of Pentecost**, giving thanks for the gift of the Holy Spirit who renews our hearts with peace, courage, and hope.

As a migrant faith community, this special Migrants Mass reminded us that even amidst distance, sacrifice, and life’s many challenges, we are never alone—the Holy Spirit continues to guide and strengthen us in our journey.

We were especially blessed to warmly welcome Nanay Rosalina and Tatay Jose Chingcuangco from Novaliches, Quezon City, whose presence brought joy and a beautiful sense of home to our parish family. 💛

Our fellowship after Mass was filled with laughter, delicious shared food, and joyful celebration as we also honored our **May birthday celebrants**: 🎂✨
**Leny Rose Simbre, Wilma Delo, Chris Sorio, Kad Mariano, and Queen Soriano.**

Thank you to everyone who joined, brought food for our potluck, shared stories, prayers, and fellowship. Moments like these remind us that church is not only where we worship—it is where we find family, belonging, and community.

**Come, Holy Spirit, continue to guide our migrant journeys with faith, love, and solidarity. 🕊️**
