Share the truth about doctor-assisted suicide
The federal government has launched a consultation process on doctor-assisted suicide. It will conduct public consultations and receive online submissions before proposing legislative options this fall.
We know the government listens to those who take the time to write or email. Please submit your views on this critical subject and sign up for notifications on the consultation process at ep-ce.ca/en/consultation.

Rachel’s Vineyard Retreat in Cache Creek, September 30 to October 2
Rachel’s Vineyard is a ministry to help those who are suffering from the pain caused by abortion. We know an abortion affects many more than just the mother and father involved. Siblings, grandparents, friends, health care workers, pregnancy crisis counsellors, etc. all can be traumatized by abortion. Rachel’s Vineyard also recognizes and helps with grief caused by other unresolved pregnancy losses.
It is NOT too late to sign up for the retreat. It will not be too late a week or a few a days ahead of time. It can be a very scary thing to commit to; we understand. For more information visit: facebook.com/rvkamloops
or call Nancy at 250-267-5081 or email rvkamloops@yahoo.ca.

Monthly Day of Adoration
Emmanuel Hermitage invites you to a Personal Date with Jesus on September 8, 2015 in the Domano Chapel, 6500 Southridge Ave. Mass will be celebrated at 7:30 a.m. and the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for a day of silent prayer and adoration. We will pray for the people and needs of our Diocese, the universal Church, and the world. In particular we will pray for the protection of all human life, for vocations, and for the intentions of those participating in the day. Please mark your calendar on the second Tuesday of each month for Personal Dates with Jesus days.
Thank you from Mary-Anne and Frank Jamin!
Frank and I are very grateful for the many expressions of sympathy we received on the death of his mother, Theresa. The funeral took place at St. Anthony’s Parish in Calgary and his father’s ashes were placed in her casket for burial – two people of deep faith who overcame much during their adventurous lives are now at peace. While we mourn their passing we celebrate all they have been for us and our family. Thank you for your prayerful support. Mary-Anne Lewis Jamin
