QMHR PARISH OUTREACH COUMMUNITY LUNCH: The
luncheon is now held on the last Friday of each month from 11:00 - 1:00
pm. Free clothing will be available. This will allow the group
to support the Parkdale Food Centre for any overflow.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ALPHA @HOLY ROSARY:
Prayer is a huge part of Alpha which discusses the basic foundations of
Christianity in an open and welcoming environment. Holy Rosary is
offering this session online. We have about 18 participants!
REMEMBER
THE TIME CAPSULE?: In June we launched a time capsule to
commemorate the 75th anniversary of Holy Rosary as a place of faith,
outreach, and inclusion in the community. We are planning a series of
activities this winter to collect and create memorabilia to insert into the
time capsule at the close of our anniversary year in June.
A photo shoot after mass where families, individuals, and
visitors can pose in front of the Altar and an intrepid parish photographer
will take their pictures. Each participant will later receive a 5X7
print - FREE! - and we will also create smaller prints that will be added to
the time capsule.
Please plan to stay a few minutes after mass on
the weekend of January 28/29 to have your
picture taken. Parishioners can also submit their own pictures (small
size only please) if they prefer.
COFFEE, TEA AND MUFFINS:
If weather permitting will be available after Sunday Mass in the parish hall. But save the date -
Sunday, February 19 for the second Coffee Sunday of the New Year.

Please save the stamps from your Christmas cards and drop them in the jar at
the back of the church. They are given to the who
use them to provide meals for the poor. We collect all year, but this
is the season when people receive the most mail.

I
AM HUNGRY FEASTING FAST:
Oftentimes fasting gets a bad rap. And the feelings associated include

that we can feast on His Word and guarantee that our niblings, cravings,
binges can be satisfied far more than those sugary treats or salty chips.
Join us this Lent for the Feast! Let's walk together through this
checkpoint on our discipleship path. Info nights: February 13 or
February 15, 7:00 - 8:00 pm. Online program runs Wednesdays
