Help beautify the parish for Christmas: while you are out shopping, consider picking up a potted poinsettia to donate. Sign up on the sheet on the credenza. Poinsettias can be brought to the parish until Sunday, December 22. Or, if you prefer, make a tax-deductible contribution to the Flower Fund, by dropping off a clearly marked envelope in the offertory basket, or online by e-transfer.
The Parish Pantry is preparing Christmas baskets. Along with supporting a few local households, we will once again be delivering to St. Willibrord Parish in Verdun, who help a large number of families all around Montreal. You can help by donating non-perishables, hygiene products and gift cards (especially for Pharmaprix & President’s Choice). The donation box is by the entrance of the church. If you know of a family in need this holiday season, please contact Marco or Karen Berardi before December 7.

About Us
Corpus Christi Parish serves the English-speaking Roman Catholic communities of Senneville, Ste-Anne de Bellevue and Baie D’Urfe.
In 1958, Cardinal Leger approved the establishment of the English-speaking Parish of Corpus Christi. Initially, parish services were held in a residence in Baie d’Urfé, which also served as the
priest’s home, while a search was undertaken to find a suitable location for the church. Through the generosity of the Morgan family, via the James Morgan Estate, a site was donated and
building commenced. The church was built and the first services were held in 1963.
Our welcoming community offers an environment where parishioners are encouraged to express their faith, share their talents, nurture their souls through ministry and to worship our God.
We welcome all seeking to grow their faith through youth programs, ministries and sacraments and particularly through social action. Corpus Christi is actively involved in meeting the needs of our own local community by providing food for the lonely and support to the sick. We also reach out to the global community through our support of Suitcases for Africa.
