Come and enjoy the time with God and friends! For youth ages 9-13 “Let the children come to me…” Mark 10, 14 We invite youth to join St.George’s new creative and exciting program for young people 9-13 years old starting this Octo- ber. We are pleased to offer young people of this age various kinds of activities and crafts this school year: chotky/rosary making, icon painting, embroidering, Ukrainian doll making, egg painting, caroling, baking/cooking, sports activities, movie watch- ing, Ukrainian dancing, games, etc. All the activities aim to be catechetically oriented and promote the spiritual and comprehen- sive development of your child in the context of Ukrainian culture and Byzantine Rite. The meetings with the youth are planned to be once a week. The day and the time of the meetings will be decided based on the needs of the parents. Participation is free but donations are welcomed. To register emailing or texting Viktoriia Marko at 306-914-0355/ [email protected]. A few Quotes of Mother Teresa of Calcata Everything we do is done for . Our life has no other goal, not other meaning, and yet, so many are not able to understand this. I am at the service of Jesus twenty-four hours a day. I do every action for him and it is he who gives me the strength to do it. I love him in the poor and I love the poor in him, but it is the Lord who always occupies first place. Whenever we receive a visitor, I always accompany him or her to the chapel saying as I do : “First let us greet the master of the house. Jesus is here: we work for him; it is to him that we give ourselves—and he strengthens us to live this life with joy.” We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not there, the ocean would be missing something. I am only God’s pencil, one that he uses to sketch whatever he wants. Like a Drop in the Ocean, 99 Sayings by Mother Teresa

MAKE A CHILD HAPPY Will you again open your hearts as you did last year and provide Christmas gifts for the children of Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish? The next to the icon of Our Lady of Guadalupe is the focus of this wonderful undertaking by our St. George’s Parishioners. On the tree are tags that identify the age and gender of a Guadalupe child. Please take one or more of these tags and and provide gifts valued at around $10-$15 each. Please wrap your gift with the tag attached so that we can match your gift to a boy or girl of appropriate age. Bring your gifts to Church and place them under our tree. Your gifts will bring much joy to the children. For some, this will be their only . St. George’s Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral has a special friendship relationship with our neighbours at Guadalupe First Nation and Metis Catholic Parish. Your Christmas gifts are visible signs of the depth of our Parish’s commitment to building this friendship. We thank Iris Owchar and Gladys Rogalski who organize this Christmas blessing.
