The Executive of the CCCB has alerted the Canadian Bishops to a debate and vote in Parliament concerning
a national strategy to combat dementia in Canada. The Private member’s Bill (C-356), The National Strategy for
Dementia Act, was introduced by Claude Gravelle, the member of parliament for Nickel Belt, 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. Please contact your local Member of Parliament if you support Bill C-356.

Advent Confessions!
Dec. 17th at 6:30 pm in the church.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation is one of the most unique and beautiful aspects of Catholicism. Jesus Christ, in His
abundant love and mercy, established the Sacrament of Confession, so that we as sinners can obtain forgiveness
for our sins and reconcile with God and the Church. The sacrament “washes us clean,” and renews us in Christ.

A Prayer Before Confession
Come Holy Spirit into my soul.
Enlighten my mind
that I may know the sins I ought to confess
and grant me Your grace
to confess them fully, humbly
and with contrite heart.
Help me to firmly resolve not to commit them again.
O Blessed Virgin, Mother of my Redeemer,
mirror of innocence and sanctity
and refuge of penitent sinners,
intercede for me
through the Passion of Your Son,
that I may obtain the grace
to make a good confession.
All you blessed angels and saints of God,
pray for me, a most miserable sinner,
that I may repent from my evil ways,
that my heart may henceforth be forever united
with yours in eternal love. Amen.
