To all our parishioners, friends, and family: Merry Christmas. Even in a year like this, let us focus on the one that brings salvation and joy into this world: Jesus Christ.

Born not in power and might, but in a stable, to show all of us: God is directing all our steps and will lead us to a good end.

Please visit us for the Christmas Masses on our Facebook page (Rafael de Vancouver), send us a Friend’s request and then you can watch it. Christmas Eve Mass 8 pm, Christmas Day Mass at 11 am.

May God bless you abundantly during the Christmas tide

Bishop Gérard LaPlante, Bishop Jürgen Schmode
