All of St.Michael's parishioners are cordially invited to attend the solemn Ordination Mass to the Diaconate, when His Excellency, Bishop Wayne Lobsinger, will ordain Brother André Blanchette, LC, as a Deacon. This mass will be held at St. Michael Church on Saturday, August 20, 2022, at 11 am. You are also warmly invited to join us for a reception at the gym of St. Michael School, which will follow the Ordination Mass. For the reception, please make sure you register at:

This will greatly assist us in the preparations. No registration is required for the Ordination Mass.

Brother André is a Legionary Brother who has been preparing for this ordination for many years. His priestly ordination as a Legionary Father will be next year in Rome.

If you wish to donate to Br. André's diaconate ordination and the Legionary of Christ (LC) community, you may do so at the same link as the registration (we can issue a tax receipt for these donations) or in a donation box at the event (tax receipts can be issued only if you provide your full name and address).

We have not had an ordination at St. Michael's before; don't miss this special event!! And please pray for Br. André as he prepares for his ordination.

Thank you for your presence and your prayers.
