Today is the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

“Today, Mary seems even closer to us: from heaven she sees us and protects us. Contemplation of paradise does not distance us from the earth; indeed on the contrary, it is an incentive to us to work with all our might to transform our world in view of eternity. In our minds resounds the Apostle’s invitation to seek the “things that are above” (Col 3:1), where an eternal dwelling place is prepared for us in the common house of the Father.” - St. John Paul II

Holy Mary, Mother of God, assumed into Heaven, pray for us!

Happy feast day to Our Lady of the Assumption Parish, PoCo!

Two dozen families came together at Christ the Redeemer Parish in West Vancouver for this year’s Catholic Family Summit, making time to put faith at the heart of family life.

The event kicked off with a talk by Father Richard Conlin, who introduced his family-friendly R.A.P. Lectio Divina method — Read, Apply, Pray. Children enjoyed faith-filled and fun activities while parents had time for prayer and Confession. The day concluded with a Eucharistic procession and Mass celebrated by Father Lucio Choi.
