Subject: Emergency Extended to June 30th
Dear Monsignor/Father/Deacon/Parish Secretary/Staff,
I am sure you have already heard by now that the "Declaration of Emergency" has been extended until June 30th.
Elisabeth will update the Archdiocese's website and I would kindly ask that you would inform your parishioners. Thank you.
COVID-19 Update from the Archdiocese of Kingston
May 31, 2020 Pentecost Sunday
The Archdiocese wishes to provide the following update regarding the eventual re-opening of parishes. Premier Doug Ford has extended the emergency orders until June 9, 2020. Until the lockdown is lifted, there is no way of knowing the exact date when it will be possible to re-open our parishes. With a safe re-opening, certain measures will need to be implemented on the parish level to minimize any further spread of the coronavirus.
- The Assembly of Catholic Bishops of Ontario (ACBO), along with various priests and others who serve in areas of expertise, is working to prepare a set of guidelines to offer Ontario dioceses a consistent approach to the re-opening of the parishes. These guidelines will then be implemented at the diocesan level to provide a safe environment for the faithful.
- While there is a certain amount of anxiety around the unknown, the re-opening of the parishes will involve some changes: an emphasis on sanitation, physical distancing, personal assessment of one's health, good hygiene practices, and in some cases, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Work continues on the specifics. No situation is without risk, and these new protocols will be put in place for the care and wellbeing of all parishioners.
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of Your love. Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth.
Sincerely in Christ, +Michael Mulhall Archbishop of Kingston
Father Ben's Sermon on The Solemnity of Pentecost 2020
After the resurrection of Jesus, the whole group of believers, we were told were of one mind and heart, no one claimed ownership of anything, rather those who had properties sold them and brought the proceeds to the Apostles, who made sure that no one in the community was in need.(Cf. Acts 4.32-35). It did not take long when the Hellenists started complaining that their widows were neglected in the daily distribution, coupled with the death of Stephen which resulted in the disciples being scattered all over the place.
The resultant effect all these was the Christian communities becoming very multicultural in nature with its blessings and odds. Some of the disciples out of their selfish interest started distorting the teachings of Christ; others confused the faith with their traditions. I have the belief that Jesus new that all these would happen when he was gone, hence the promise of the Holy Spirit.
At some point Jesus already witnessed the distortion of purpose and intent of some of His members: - ‘who is the greatest among them’, ‘places at His right and left hand in His kingdom’ and not excluding the ‘love of money’. Left on their own without a guide and counsellor, Christianity could lose its purpose, Jesus did not want to risk that, else His death would be in vain.
According to our first reading from Acts of the Apostles, the spirit came, like divided tongues, as of fire, a tongue rested on each of them, gave them different abilities and they began to speak. But worthy of note is the fact that though they were given different abilities, their purpose was the same; “in our own languages we hear them speaking about God’s deeds of power” (Acts 2.11).
At our baptism, we were immersed into the life of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit; the gifts of the spirit were activated in us at our confirmation. Since then, what has been happening in our lives? How have we been using those gifts? For the Common good as did our predecessors or have we been selfish with our gifts? For instance, those at the first Pentecost were all talking about ‘Gods deeds of Power’; in our own case, what do we talk about when we gather; About Gods deeds of power or about people (Gossip)?
Count the number of Pentecost Sundays you have celebrated in your life, God has not given up on you, this year He has decided to offer you those gifts once more, I pray that this time around we will allow ourselves to be driven by God so as to begin to act as the Spirit gives us ability for the Common good and to the glory of God.
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Amen.

5th Sunday of Easter 2020
Jesus ushered in this Sunday message in a very peculiar way when he said to the disciples: “Let not your hearts be troubled” (John 14:1a). This admonition came after he announced to them his departure to the father and they were worried; probably thinking about what will become of them or who will be providing them with bread and fish as he has always done when they were in need. More so who would calm the storm for them in the middle of the see? This type of situation is not uncommon in some families, especially where only one person provides for the family, and the bread winner tells you that he/she is going away to a destination unknown to you. The uncertainty of such separation scares the living hell out of the person.
The mare thought of the unknown generates anxiety and fear; at times it could end up in depression or some mental-health issues. To help the disciples overcome this tension, Jesus gave them the antidote to their mental state at the moment when he added: “Believe in God, believe also in me” (John 14. 1b); for whoever believes in him will not be put to shame. (cf. 1Peter 2.6); for he looks after his own as he promised.
Is anyone amongst us worried about anything? Hahaha, is Fr Ben joking or what? I think am dead serious. Please my hands are up, because there are so many worries hanging on me, even more than any of you can think of. Am worried about my family and friends who are health workers, about my friends who are very sick and I cannot visit them; am worried about stories of the poor masses in some of the third world countries, who are complaining that; “Hunger virus” is killing them more than “coronavirus”. I don’t even have time to think about myself. This situation helps me to understand how troubled many of you are. The Lord has asked me to do this and to inform you to do the same; “Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your request be made known to God” (Philippians4.6).
Going back to our last Sundays reflection, where the lord Jesus is presented to us as the shepherd and guardian of our souls, it becomes imperative that we should surrender to God and allow him to lead and we follow. Easier said than done; we would rather that we lead and he follows. This marks the genesis of our crisis, because we stubbornly refuse his lead, yet we complain that he is not looking after us. Really?
My friends in Christ, no matter how prayerful, saintly or holy we may think that we are, without humility and obedience, submitting to the will of God, especially when it is contrary to our own will or inconveniencing to us; we are serving ourselves and not God. Listen to what Saint Faustina had to say about submitting to the will of God: “Today after Holy Communion, the Lord said to me, My daughter, My delight is to unite myself with you. It is when you submit yourself to My will that you give Me the greatest glory and draw down upon yourself a sea of blessings. I would not take such special delight in you if you were not living by my will. O my sweet guest, I am prepared for all sacrifices for Your sake, but You know that I am weakness itself. Nevertheless, with You I can do all things. O my Jesus, I beseech You, be with me at each instant”.(Diary no. 54).
Happy Mother’s Day to all our lovely mothers. I love you all

COVID - 19 - #6 - PRAYING THE ROSARY
HOW TO PRAY THE ROSARY OF JESUS
In Remembrance of the 33 years of Jesus' Life on earth
The original rosary of Jesus contains 7 Mysteries with 33 Our Fathers in honor of our Lord's 33 years on earth. The eighth mystery was added by Father Slavko with the intention of glorifying the Holy Spirit.
In the name of the Father…
PRAYER:
My Jesus, at this moment I want to be with You. You are my Brother and my Redeemer. For my sake, You stayed with me. Thank You! Thank You for Your life. That is why, at the beginning of this prayer, O Jesus, I entrust to You my life, worries, problems and everything that tries to deceive me and separate me from You. I renounce sin, which destroyed our friendship. I renounce evil, which spoiled our friendship. Lord, I lay at Your feet everything I possess. I want to be entirely Yours and, with You, belong completely to the Father.
O Mary, no one besides You ever knew how it was to be with Jesus while He was growing up with You. Stay with me now so that I may know how to stay with Jesus. Pray with me, O Mary, so that the Spirit of Jesus may cover me and enable me to pray like Him, “Abba, Father!” Amen.
APOSTLES' CREED: I believe in God, the Father…
1) FIRST MYSTERY: Jesus is born in Bethlehem (Lk 2:4-7, 10-14).
INTENTION: Let us pray for peace!
PRAYER: O Jesus, be our peace. Eliminate the barriers that separate us from the other. Make us men of good will.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
2) SECOND MYSTERY: Jesus helps and gives everything to the poor (Lk 9:12-13; 16-17).
INTENTION: Let us pray for the Holy Father, for all the authorities in the Church and all nations.
PRAYER: O Jesus, You loved the poor, satisfying them with the bread of earth. And even more: You offered the bread of heaven and living water for all the hungry and thirsty. Move the heart of our Pope and all those responsible for the Church and the nations so that they promote the just distribution of earthly goods and that all may be fed and still have leftovers.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
3) THIRD MYSTERY: Jesus entrusts Himself to the Father and does His will (Mt 26:36-39; 42-44).
INTENTION: Let us pray for priests and those who in a special way are called to serve Jesus for all their life.
PRAYER: O Jesus, You entrusted Yourself to the will of the Father even in the most difficult moments. Grant to all priests and consecrated persons the grace to faithfully fulfil the Father’s will. Take away their fear of drinking the bitter chalice of life. May all the anxiety and solitude that life presents to them not impede them on the secure road to the resurrection.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
4) FOURTH MYSTERY: Jesus knew that He would give His life for us and freely did it because He loves us (Jn 17:1-2; 19).
INTENTION: Let us pray for families.
PRAYER: O Jesus, You loved us and because of this You returned to the Father with a serene soul, replete with complete abandon. For You, nothing was excessively difficult because You were full of love for us. Make our families also be entirely disposed to do everything to make one another happy. Make our parents sanctify their life in love so that together they give of themselves to their children, sanctifying them also.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
5) FIFTH MYSTERY: Jesus sacrificed His life for us! (Jn 15:12-14).
INTENTION: Let us pray for each one of us to be able to offer his life for others.
PRAYER: O Jesus, You showed the infinite grandeur of Your love when You died for us. You put aside the glory You had enjoyed from the beginning and accepted the condition of a servant, inviting us to follow Your example: to live at the complete disposition of another, just as You did down to Your last day on earth. Thank You, because You gave us the conditions to be able to love as You do. Drive away from us selfishness, arrogance, hatred and sensuality.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
6) SIXTH MYSTERY: The victory of Jesus. He defeated the devil and rose again (Lk 24:4-7; 10:17-20).
INTENTION: Let us pray that all sin be eliminated and that Jesus may be resurrected in our hearts.
PRAYER Lord Jesus, You defeated death. Free me from sin and death. May hatred be overcome in me and others so that peace triumphs. With the power of Your Word and the word of the priest, do away with the influence of Satan.
SAY 5 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
7) SEVENTH MYSTERY: Jesus went up to heaven (Lk 24:50-53).
INTENTION: Let us pray for the fulfillment of God’s will.
PRAYER: Jesus, grant us the spirit of prayer and joy so that we may be Your witnesses before the peoples and nations.
May Your Church be the perennial witness in the world of Your infinite love!
SAY 3 OUR FATHERS AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
8) EIGHTH MYSTERY: Jesus sends the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles in the company of the Virgin Mary (Acts 2:1-4).
INTENTION: Let us pray for the Holy Spirit to pour down His fullness upon us, our families, the Church, religious communities and all the baptized.
PRAYER: May the Holy Spirit especially inspire the hearts of all who govern the world, communicating to the them a sense of justice for making wise decisions on the road to peace. Jesus, send us Your Spirit as You did to Your Apostles and Mother.
May He enlighten us always and lead us to know the truth; may He teach us love and guide our steps in direction of peace!
SAY 7 TIMES GLORY BE… AND THE INVOCATION: O Jesus, be our protection and strength!
