4.    Bill C-356 (An Act Respecting a National Strategy for Dementia).

The Private Member’s Bill (C-356), The National Strategy for Dementia Act, was introduced by Claude Gravelle, a Member of Parliament, and calls on the Government of Canada to increase funding for research; to promote earlier diagnosis and intervention; to strengthen the integration of primary, home, and community care; to enhance the skills and training of the dementia workforce, and to improve support for caregivers. The final vote for this bill is scheduled for May 6‎.

On March 13 the Conservatives announced they would oppose the bill, introducing instead their own motion that focused more on research initiatives and listing some main issues to address moving forward. ‎Research is good but a non-binding motion rather than a law means no mandate to act, no real leadership from Ottawa, no help now for those patients, their caregivers and healthcare providers. As MP Claude Gravelle stated, “What the Conservatives call their national dementia strategy is in fact a research strategy alone, a plan that does not immediately help patients, caregivers, and the dementia workforce. As important as research is, it does not help keep our loved ones with Alzheimer or related dementia diseases in the home.”

Parishioners are encouraged to contact their local Member of Parliament if they support Bill C-356. This action has been successful recently with the palliative and end-of-life care motion (M-456) where enough people contacted their Conservative MPs who then voted for the bill, despite their own government’s opposition.

1.     Easter Greetings – Bishop Stephen Jensen

Please share the following Easter Message from Bishop Jensen in parish bulletins:

“O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His steadfast love endures forever.”

 The words of the responsorial psalm for Easter Sunday present the celebration of the Resurrection as an invitation to encounter God’s steadfast love for us. This love that moved Him to humble Himself by becoming a man to offer His life on the cross is a torrent of mercy that touches people in every age.

Pope Francis has just announced an extraordinary Holy Year, from December 2015 to November 2016, to be observed as a “Jubilee of Mercy.” In this the Holy Father is building on the ministry of St. John Paul II, who instituted the observance of Divine Mercy Sunday on the octave day of Easter in answer to the message of Saint Faustina, the Polish mystic to whom the Lord spoke of His great mercy for sinners.

I invite everyone to join me at Sacred Heart Cathedral on Sunday, April 12, beginning at 2:00 pm, for the Divine Mercy devotions and Mass. It will be a wonderful way to anticipate the jubilee year and strengthen our trust in His mercy.

 Happy Easter!

                                                                  Bishop Stephen Jensen

Parish secretaries are asked to forward their parish Easter schedule to Lisa Weber at lisa@pgdiocese.bc.ca. This information will be placed on the Diocesan website.

5.    Year of Mercy

On March 13, 2015 Pope Francis announced the celebration of an “extraordinary Holy Year”. This “Jubilee of Mercy” will commence with the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter’s on December 8, 2015, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, and will conclude on November 20, 2016 with the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe. The Holy Father stated: “This is the time of mercy. It is important that the lay faithful live it and bring it into different social environments. Go forth!”

The opening of this next Jubilee will take place on the fiftieth anniversary of the closing of the Second Vatican Council in 1965. This is of great significance, for it impels the Church to continue the work begun at Vatican II.

During the Jubilee, the Sunday readings for Ordinary Time will be taken from the Gospel of Luke, the one referred to as “the evangelist of mercy”. Dante Alighieri describes him as “scriba mansuetudinis Christi”, “narrator of the meekness of Christ”. There are many well known parables of mercy presented in the Gospel of Luke: the lost sheep, the lost coin, the merciful father.

The official and solemn announcement of the Holy Year will take place with the public proclamation of the Bolla in front of the Holy Door on Divine Mercy Sunday, the Feast instituted by Saint John Paul II and celebrated on the Sunday after Easter.

In the ancient Hebrew tradition, the Jubilee Year, which was celebrated every 50 years, was meant to restore equality among all of the children of Israel, offering new possibilities to families which had lost their property and even their personal freedom. In addition, the Jubilee Year was a reminder to the rich that a time would come when their Israelite slaves would once again become their equals and would be able to reclaim their rights. “Justice, according to the Law of Israel, consisted above all in the protection of the weak” (St. John Paul II, Tertio millenio adveniente 13).

6.     Life Giving Love Campaign

Last year, the campaign entitled Life‐Giving Love prepared by the Catholic Organization for Life and Family (COLF) was created to help people understand the teaching of the Church pertaining to issues surrounding end‐of‐life care. The recent ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada that removed the legal prohibition against assisted suicide and euthanasia underscores the importance of this initiative. A special website containing useful educational resources was created for the campaign. It is found at www.lifegivinglove.ca. In addition, COLF’s own website (www.colf.ca) contains a wealth of information relating to euthanasia and assisted suicide, including that which could be used for homilies.

4.     Give Us Time

A new website, http://giveustime.ca/ has been created by the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition of B.C. in response to the recent ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada on assisted suicide and euthanasia. When the Supreme Court struck down Canada’s assisted suicide law, it gave Parliament one year to replace it. One year is not enough time to draft effective legislation especially in an election year. The GIVE US TIME postcard campaign urges the Federal government to invoke the Notwithstanding Clause to give Parliament more than one year. Please refer to the website for further information and add your voice to this important cause.

This year’s Mission looks at when and where God speaks to us in our daily lives and how we, as an institution and as individuals, can ignore that voice at our peril. In Program Two, the afternoon of life is looked at and why it burdens some people and brings freedom and joy to others.

1.     Staff Changes at the Pastoral Centre

After careful consideration of our staffing needs in the Pastoral Centre, the decision was made to eliminate one clerical position. It was determined that the Diocese could no longer justify two positions within the whole diocesan structure due to the overall reduction in clerical duties. Therefore, effective February 25th, 2015, Esperanza Vezina was laid off from her position and Teresa Phillippe was moved to Reception. The selection was made on the basis of years of service to Diocese.

We are saddened that we had to make this decision and thank Esperanza for her service to the Diocese as a whole during her time as the Pastoral Centre Receptionist.
