Our Lenten practices do not end with Lent, but continue into Easter, where we renew our baptismal call to live as God’s holy people.

Fur Babies vs Future Babies : Let's Talk About It
Fri 8 May
8pm - 10pm
St Mary Room, CANA
Our pets bring us so much joy, companionship, and love!
But as couples journey toward marriage, questions about children, family, and the future often begin to surface.
This session gently explores how marriage can expand our capacity to love beyond what feels comfortable or familiar. Through honest conversation and reflection, we’ll consider the beauty of nurturing both the bonds we already cherish and the possibilities that lie ahead - including the call to welcome new life.
