PARISH REPORT
Response to the Call of the Holy Father for a Synod on Synodality
On April 6, 2022, fifteen participants joined six members of the parish synod working group for three hours of sharing, reflection, discernment and prayer. In addition, until April 24, a Synod Questionnaire was made available on the parish website and in hard copy form in the church to gather input from those not able to join the in person consultation.
The following is a thematic synopsis of the notes taken at the synod consultation, supplemented by input from the questionnaire.

MESSAGE FROM FR. MARTIN
Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ
As you may know, our revenue from donations has significantly declined due to the Covid-19 restrictions limiting our gathering size and given that most of our members are in the vulnerable zone, who we have encouraged to stay home for now. Please help support St. Elizabeth by making a donation by cheque, cash at Mass or anytime online at our Canada Helps link on this website. If you donate online, you will receive a tax receipt immediately from Canada Helps. Also, you can donate through Interac E-Transfer at stelizabethparish@rogers.com
Please support St. Elizabeth Parish community with your prayers and a financial contribution if you are able to do so at the present time. Your donation helps pay salaries, utilities, and costs for cleaning the church among other necessities. The additional precautionary measures such as cleaning the church after every Mass have increased our expenses when our revenue is already falling below our needs, so your financial assistance is appreciated. Thank you to everyone who has made a donation.
I welcome you to the new website and am hopeful that it will unite amongst ourselves as members of St. Elizabeth, as well as members from outside our environs. Praised Be Jesus Christ.
Fr. Martin Ndyanabo
