Welcome to Fr, Charles in St. Mary's church Canada.
On Tuesday, October 14, 2014, St-Mary’s Parish welcomed Father Charles Serrao OCD, Carmelite Provincial Superior from India who is visiting Canadian Carmelite parishes.

The Parish was well represented with St-Mary’s Elementary School principal, Ms Charmaine Hanley, all the teachers, about135 students and approximately 35 parishioners in attendance.

Fr. Ronnie our pastor began by introducing and welcoming Father Charles to the Parish and he said Fr, Charles is a provincial superior to the Carmelite fathers. He has a deep experience of Carmelite way of life, the long time he was in Rome, and two terms he served as an assistant to the General superior. Even he has concelebrated the Eucharist six times with saint pope john Paul 2nd. In the month of April he was appointed as a provincial superior.

Father Charles presided the celebration of the Eucharist and delivered the Homily.
Father Ronnie proclaimed the Gospel and concelebrated the Mass.

The Reading and Psalm were read by the students who also enthusiastically provided the Music Liturgy.

Following Mass, a picture of all the attendees was taken and a coffee social was held in the church hall where parishioners had the opportunity to meet and speak with Father Charles.
