Prayer Service for the Victims & Survivors of Super Typhoon Haiyan

On Monday, November 18, 6:30pm at St. Joseph’s Church, I, together with the Filipino Community in the Town of Smithers will offer a prayer service for the victims and survivors of the Super Typhoon Haiyan that hit the Philippines. All are welcome to join us in prayer.

There will be a monetary collection within the prayer service. The collection will go to the survivors and their families through Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace. As announced by the Canadian Government, any cash donation will be matched.

When a tragedy such us this happens, we cannot ignore that we are part of all of humanity. We cannot remain blind, deaf and mute of what we are seeing and hearing on the news. As part of humanity, their pains are our pains too. In this time of lost and need, let us reach out in prayers and generosity.

See you all at the prayer service. Thank you!
