Yearly Archives: 2023

The entire staff at Blessed Sacrament would like to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas!  It has been a wonderful first half of the year and we feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to work in this community!  We hope that the Holiday Season brings you HOPE for the new year, PEACE of heart and mind, JOY with your families and friends, and the LOVE that God shares with us!

We look forward to welcoming everyone back on Monday, January 8th, 2024!

Greetings!  We would like to invite all of you including students and their families to our Penitential Service on Thursday, December 21 at 7:00 PM.

There will be 10 Priests who will hear individual confessions who speaks different languages  (English, French, Spanish, Polish, Filipino, Italian, German and many more).

It’s a great preparation for Christmas and a reminder to the families that we still offer Confessions to the School through our Church-Blessed Sacrament (305 Laurentian Drive Kitchener).

There will be pamphlets on how to Confess.

Thank you so much and hope to see you all tomorrow.

Have a blessed Wednesday.
