We are very happy to be welcoming Fr. Henry Sands to speak to us Sunday July 17 at 1:30pm at Our Lady Help of Christians church.  Fr. Henry is originally from Walpole Island First Nation. He was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Detroit and is currently serving in Washington, D.C. as the Director of the Office of Black and Indian Affairs for the U.S. bishops. Fr. Henry was part of the Indigenous delegation who went to Rome recently to meet with Pope Francis. His talk "Truth and Reconciliation - Residential Schools, a papal apology and moving forward together" is open to all, either to attend in person or watch livestreamed from our parish website at this YouTube link. Please pray for the success of the pope's upcoming visit to Canada July 24-29, and for healing and reconciliation across Canada.
