"... we must strongly reject the use of religion for justifying war, violence, or any form of fundamentalism or fanaticism. Instead, the paths to follow are those of fraternal encounter, dialogue and cooperation." Pope Leo XIV - Iznik, Türkiye November 28, 2025 www.vatican.va/content/leo-...

On November 28, the Church and the Oblate family honor the Blessed Oblate Martyrs of Spain, twenty-two Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate and one layman who surrendered their lives during the Spanish Civil War of 1936. www.omiworld.org/2025/11/27/n...

On this World Youth Day, our youth and young adults set out on a pilgrimage to the Cathedral - a journey of faith, friendship, and discovery. They were inspired by by viewing the powerful story of Saint Carlo Acutis. Holiness is possible at any age! 🙏✨ #Jubilee2025

“On the feast of Christ the King, I pray that every young person may discover the beauty and joy of following him, the Lord, and dedicating him or herself to his Kingdom of love, justice and peace.” Pope Leo XIV - Angelus November 23, 2025

Here, Christ the King doesn’t sit on a throne - He lies on a bench. #HomelessJesus calls us to confront injustice and stand with the oppressed. In every marginalized person, the Liberating Christ restores dignity and urges us to build a world where all can rise. @stpatshamilton.bsky.social

Reject the spirit of harsh judgment. 🕊️ St. Eugene de Mazenod warned: “…misunderstanding, misjudging, openly criticizing everything… this is a wicked spirit.” Choose mercy over criticism - your kindness can break cycles of hurt. 🙏 #ThoughtForTheDay

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to honour the survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never came home, and commit to walking the path of healing, justice, and respect with Indigenous Peoples. 🧡 #TruthAndReconciliation #NDTR

We’ve decided not to travel through the US. Stay tuned for updates as we shape this life-changing journey of faith and service!

This weekend reflection: The Gospel of the rich man & Lazarus isn’t about “rich vs. poor” but about indifference. Christ calls us: see the person at your gate, act with compassion today, and build the bridge so no chasm remains... #SundayReflection

Celebrating Mass in our retirement homes is always humbling. In the faces of the sick, the lonely, and the dying, Christ’s presence shines so powerfully. A reminder that even in suffering, God’s love is near, tender, and alive among us. ✨ #Faith #Hope #PresenceOfChrist

Homelessness is not just a social issue — it is a human experience, one that is deeply personal, complex, and often heartbreaking. Those who come to our doors are (...) neighbours, children of God, carrying their own stories and burdens. @stpatshamilton.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/jarekpac...

As seen today at our @stpatshamilton.bsky.social in the inner-city of Hamilton, ON… a homeless neighbour finds rest beside the Homeless Jesus statue. A powerful reminder that Christ is present in our streets, in the suffering, and in the most vulnerable. 💛🙏 #HomelessJesus

This weekend’s reflection: “Whoever is faithful in very little is faithful also in much.” (Luke 16:10) 🌱 Small acts of love - prayer, kindness, honesty - become seeds God turns into a great harvest. Be faithful in the little things and watch grace multiply! ✨ #SundayReflection

This weekend reflection (see Luke 14:1.7-14)… In a world that overlooks the poor, Jesus invites us to honor them. As St. Eugene de Mazenod said, “Know your dignity.” At God’s table, every soul has worth beyond measure. 📷: 1 millionth meal served at #DeMazenodDoor @stpatshamilton.bsky.social Aug2024

You are worth more than your struggles, and HOPE is served here! ✨ As seen on our parking lot at #DeMazenodDoor Outreach - reminding everyone that brighter days are ahead and you deserve support. Stop by for a dose of hope and kindness! 💛 #Community
