Catholic Education Sunday - Nov. 5

Sunday, November 5 is Catholic Education Sunday!

This special day gives us the opportunity to celebrate publicly funded Catholic education, a gift that we acknowledge with deep gratitude. It is a privilege to provide faith-based education to more than 2900 students in the city of Medicine Hat!

Donations collected on Catholic Education Sunday at our local parishes directly support our students. Each year grade 4 students across the division are gifted their very own bibles with funds collected on the previous Catholic Education Sunday.

November 5 Mass Times:

• Holy Family Parish times: 8:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m. (Monsignor McCoy School Sponsored Mass) & 6:00 p.m.
• St. Patrick's Church times: 9:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m.
