PARISH PICNIC – SUNDAY, JUNE 23, 2013
POSTPONED DUE TO THE
CURRENT STATE OF EMERGENCY
Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected.
We express our sincere appreciation to all our Parishioners and all those
attending our Commemorative Masses for their support in celebrating this
significant milestone in our Parish.
Throughout the Bible, the Lord reminds people to tell all generations of their
LORD'S wonderful works. Part of what that means for us as individuals and
churches is that we must preserve the memory of how God has worked in our
lives. A church that has a strong sense of its history will have a better sense of
identity to build on for the future.
Periodically, each church takes a look back to rediscover how their church
came into being, what its early ministry was like, and how it has grown and
changed over the years.
Such a celebration gives individual members the opportunity to join together
in focusing on the church as a body of believers who have been blessed by the
Lord. It can also be a wonderful time to benefit from the gifts of the people.
And it's an occasion for church members of all ages to tell and hear stories of
the past and present days of the church.
Today we gather in joy and with a certain spiritual pride, to celebrate the 60th
Anniversary of the Foundation of the Parish which was opened on May 1,
1953 by Bishop F. J. Caroll, Bishop of the Diocese of Calgary.
This Church was built as an extraordinary act of faith and confidence in God
and in his faithfulness to his people. This Church building was a sign of hope in
a better future.
The building is still today a witness to the spirit of community which
contributed to the planning and construction of this Church.
Today society has changed but the fundamental needs and values which build
society and keep society together have not changed. This is all the more
reason for us to celebrate today the values that have belonged to the history
of this community and have enriched it for six decades.
History is made up of continuity and change. Change can provoke anxiety and
resignation. In times of change and continuity we need to rekindle that strong
community-spirit which has been a mark of this community.
We give thanks to God for all the blessings He has bestowed upon St.
Anthony’s Parish. We are thankful for the strong foundation that was laid by
our forefathers and mothers in the gospel, who labored hard and long. We
have truly come this far by faith, and by faith we will accomplish all that God
has destined for us.

Our Parish Stewardship
Prayer
Gracious and Loving God, we
have gathered as a community to
listen to your Word, and to share
in the Eucharist.
May your eternal Word and the
living Eucharist transform us into
good stewards of your abundant
blessings, and teach us to open our
hearts to the needs of the Church
and to the voices of the poor.
Watch over us with loving care,
and help our parish to grow in
faith, hope and love.
Fill your Church with generous
hearts that also respond to your
call to the priesthood and religious
life.
We ask this through Christ our
Lord.
Amen.
