Communications Editors Priority News

Parish Bulletin Editors: To aid the distribution of important statements and announcements parishes are
expected to publish news service items marked as PRIORTY in their parish based bulletin.

Once again this year our friends at Eastlink TV will broadcast live liturgies from Saint Mary’s Cathedral Basilica.  The following liturgies will be on Eastlink TV channel 10 or 610:

  • Good Friday at 3:00pm
  • Easter Sunday Morning at 10:30am

Please share this information with family and friends ill or homebound or otherwise unable to get to Mass over Holy Week and Easter.  Let us pray together!

On Good Friday, Catholics across Canada are invited to contribute to the Holy Land Collection overseen by the Commissariat of the Holy Land Canada.  This is a way in which Canadian churches can be united in solidarity with the Holy Land and support the Christian peoples and the holy sites in the land where Christ lived and where the earliest Christian communities arose.

Please note the following business hours for Holy Week and Easter for the offices of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth:

  • March 26: Closed from 11:00am to 3:00pm as staff take part in the Chrism Mass
  • March 29: Closed for Good Friday
  • April 1: Closed for Easter Monday

We will re-open on Tuesday, April 2 for regular business hours, 8:30am to 4:30pm.  Thank you
