Les Echos du Pacifique: A Christmas of love 2024!
Les Échos du Pacifique invites you to their annual Christmas celebration on Saturday, December 14, 2024 at 7:00 pm at Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes Catholic Church in Coquitlam.
Under the direction of Marla Mayson, the choir presents a diverse selection of pieces that we hope surround you with feelings of mystery, peace and love, warm memories of traditional celebrations, the magic of winter’s arrival, and the hope and inspiration of a new year.
This year, we feature works by Ivo Antonigni, Robert Sieving, John Leavitt, Sarah Quartel, John
Rutter, Douglas Wagner and Bryn Nixon from Vancouver. We are also thrilled to present two fantastic new pieces by John Michael Trotta, a beautiful reimagining of a traditional French carol by Kyle Pedersen, and a French version of a much-loved Christmas standard!
As always, there will be a selection of audience songs that we can all sing together! We hope you will join us!
Tickets are available:
Project Advance 2024
Project Advance makes possible the many ministries and programs that bring us together, furthering our evangelizing mission, both at the parish and throughout the archdiocese. With your donations over the years, we have been able to accomplish many great works! It is inspiring to see so many people working together to further the Kingdom of God. Most parishioners are aware of our plans to renovate the basement. An important feature of the renovation is to bring back the windows that were boarded up over fifty years ago. Windows allow the light to come in. Beautiful daylight. Allowing daylight in through the windows will make our church basement far more appealing than a box filled with artificial light. Our parish goal this year is $70,000 to help cover the cost of the windows. All parishioners are encouraged to donate as participation is just as important, if not more so, than the amount given. Please offer something, large or small, for the future of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish. You can contribute to Project Advance by speaking with a volunteer at the church entrance, going online to projectadvance.ca, scanning the QR code on the Project Advance poster, or by dropping by the parish office. Let’s bring God’s natural light into the church basement and help shine the light of faith on our neighborhood.
Return to Our Lady
The World is suffering
Economically. Morally. Culturally. Spiritually. Yet despite the persecution we’re now facing, confusion in the Church, and the temptation to despair – maybe even because of those difficulties – Catholics are still filled with supernatural hope.
A call to prayer
We know that we are not alone in the battle for souls. In times of great crisis, the Church calls upon the faithful to turn to Our Lady in prayer to intercede on our behalf. History is replete with evidence that she has never failed to come to the aid of those who ask. One of the first to publicly announce the start of a nine-month novena to Our Lady of Guadalupe initiated by His Eminence Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke. The novena will begin on March 12 and culminate with an act of consecration on her feast day, December 12.
Cardinal Burke
Every month of the novena, participants will receive emails directly from Cardinal Burke with encouragement and spiritual direction. So let’s respond with fervor to the Cardinal’s urgent worldwide call to prayer and a return to Our Lady for the spiritual health of our country and the world.
