Does the lure of riches and material goods choke God out of your life?

Are you so caught up in earthly activities that you have no time for God?

Gratitude and generosity are virtues that we should strive to do on a daily

basis. Every decision we make either takes us one step closer to God or one

step further away. What we receive at Mass every Sunday should be shared

with others all the other days of the week as well.

“The seed sown among

thorns is the one who

hears the word but the

cares of the world and

the lure of wealth

choke the word, and it

yields nothing.”

Matthew 13:22

COVID-19 Archdiocese of Regina UPDATES:

Stay up to date on protocols:

https://archregina.sk.ca/content/covid-19-updates

Holy Trinity update from Fr Lorne

Six Weeks of Masses with the new protocols.

They told us it would be onerus, and it’s true! The guidelines for numbers attending, keeping records of who attends which Mass, health assessment questions, distancing and cleaning guidelines have been a heavy load. We have limited staff resources at Holy Trinity, and Val, Heather and Dominic have extended themselves to make it possible for you to return to Mass. Many thanks to them and also to our competent volunteer helpers on Sundays and weekdays to ensure the protocols are being followed.

This Sunday, we will welcome our largest group of worshippers of 36 people, including children, seated in all pews, including the south (un-upholstered) pews. We will be trying a different way to bring everyone to the eucharist table in an organized and timely fashion (by row, instead of by section).

Saturday 5 pm Mass suspended for July. For those of you who prefer this Mass time, we pray you will be able to come on Sunday morning at 10 am in order to help us get through the next few weeks. Registration through the of-fice (details on page 5).

You will notice the Archbishop’s July 3 letter of Clergy moves involves a change at Holy Trinity. More information about this October 1 change in the coming weeks.

Val will be emailing last year’s participants as well as families

with children in sacramental preparation.

Self-assessment Questions You will be asked the following when you book a weekend Mass, as well as when you arrive at Holy Trinity for any Mass:

Do you have COVID-19 or live with someone with COVID-19?

Have you been exposed to someone with COVID-19?

Are you sick, including even one of the slightest symptoms or feelings of sickness, especially upper respiratory or flu-like symptoms such as fever, cough, headache, aches & pains, sore throat, chills, runny nose, loss of sense of taste or smell or shortness of breath or difficulty breathing?

Have you travelled outside of Regina in the past two weeks?

The upholstery at Holy Trinity is not able to be sanitized.

Pews on the south side of the church do not have upholstery and you may

request to sit there, providing they are available with proper distancing.

Scam Alert—if you receive an email from a priest, that asks you to contact them, be wary of replying There are a number of scams including ones purporting to be from Father Lorne. If you are unsure, call the office and delete the email without responding. Here’s one we received in the office Friday (with Heather’s name in the subject line) “Do you have a moment I have a request I need you to handle discreetly. I am currently busy in a meeting now, no calls so just reply to my email.” DELETE!

NOTE THE CHANGE TO THE WEBSITE ADDRERSS FOR the

Livestream Masses will be in effect beginning July 7.

English Weekday and Sunday Masses are livestreamed at 9:00 AM daily from Resurrection Parish. French Sunday Mas are livestreamed from St. Jean Baptiste Parish every two weeks.

For Livestream Links visit www.youtube.com/ArchdioceseRegina

Other Archdiocese of Regina notices are in the Weekly

Bulletin attachment (for July).

Missing—blue metal cart from north door of Holy Trinity. Last

seen Wed. July 8. We don’t know if it was during office hours

or after (perhaps result of unlatched lock). If you see it in some

odd place (like an alley in the neighbourhood), let us know.

Tanzania, African Project— For the last several years, the Holy Trinity CWL has assisted Dr. Pam Petruka by collecting items required for medical clinics, orphanages and schools in Africa and other third world countries. Due to COVID we were unable to gather items for Dr. Petruka to send where needed. However we can now resume collecting items such as big suit-cases, clothing and shoes - especially for children, blankets and school bags. AS WELL - Dr. Petruka was given numerous small cases that can be used in the orphanages as First-aid, School Supply or Sewing Kits.

Thank-you to everyone who has taken a kit to fill. There are still a couple of kits at the church office that can be picked up and filled if anyone would still like to assist with this project.

For more information call Lois @ 306-543-3934.

prior years and we look forward to holding the trade show again in 2021.

Other Liturgy Changes—

Promptness—to ensure we can monitor who is

attending, the doors will be locked at the start of Mass.

This also allows us to provide the proper number of

hosts needed for that Mass.

Announcements will be done before Mass with

detailed instructions for Eucharist.

Singing is a high-risk activity so we will not have this

except for special music as we can fit this in safely.

Proclaimers of the Word—First Reading, Psalm and

Second Reading will all be proclaimed by the same

person. This will be done from a microphone at the

front, with care being taken to not share a microphone

within 72 hours of another person. The ambo (lectern)

and the microphone there are to be used only by

Father Lorne.

Collection—a collection box is inside the glass doors

for your donation instead of being collected from you

in the pew.

Eucharist—hosts will be consecrated on a table and

parishioners will come forward, one household group

at a time. Stand behind the black tape line; Father will

say “The Body of Christ”; respond ‘Amen’, then step

forward and pick up the host closest to you; take a

step or two away before consuming.

We are working hard to help get you back to Mass.

Thank you for your patience as we try things to see

what works for Holy Trinity.

Holy Trinity has re-opened for Masses

with limited numbers

The latest Government of Sask guidelines for Places of

Worship, are permitting more people in churches that can

accommodate them.

At Holy Trinity, we have seating for approximately 30

people, dependent on whether they come as couples,

singles or families. We are registering as many as

possible for weekend Masses and monitoring how many

helpers we need to provide the controls required for

distancing and cleaning.

Sat 5 pm Mass will be discontinued for July, during staff

vacation, as we cannot fill the positions needed Saturday

afternoons.

Requests for Sunday Mass Attendance are being co-

ordinated in the office. Email [email protected] or call

the parish office (306) 543-3838. Requests will be han-

dled during our regular office hours, which normally have

been Monday to Friday, 9 am to 3 pm. Please provide a

day-time phone number so we can call you back and con-

firm an attendance date. Questions about your health will

be asked at time of booking (see separate box). Those

registered are being given detailed instructions.

Weekday Mass Attendance - Generally weekday

Masses are Monday to Friday at 8:30 am. You do not

need to register in advance. Come to the north door; we

will record your name and phone number and ask the

health assessment questions. We are closed Thursday,

July 16 so no Mass that day.

Church Open for Prayer—We will continue to have the

church open for prayer from 9 am to 2 pm, Monday to

Friday, unless otherwise published in the bulletin.

We may need to close occasionally to ensure staff aren't

working too many hours to accommodate the required

protocols.

Church Pews—Our church pews are marked to for the

2 metre guidelines of social distancing. Our upholstered

pews cannot be sanitized. If you wish to bring your own

seat cushion or towel, please do so. The wooden pews

on the south side of the church do not have upholstery. If

you prefer to sit there, check with the person directing this.

Seating for Mass will be done from front to back. For exit-

ing after Mass, it will be reversed, from back to front.

These directions will be announced at the Mass.

Photos on website—check these out on the home page

to give you an idea what to expect.

Self-assessment Questions You will be asked the

following when you book a weekend Mass, as well as

when you arrive at Holy Trinity for any Mass:

Do you have COVID-19 or live with someone with

COVID-19?

Have you been exposed to someone with

COVID-19?

Are you sick, including even one of the

slightest symptoms or feelings of sickness,

especially upper respiratory or flu-like

symptoms such as fever, cough, headache,

aches & pains, sore throat, chills, runny nose,

loss of sense of taste or smell or shortness of

breath or difficulty breathing?

Have you travelled outside of Regina in the past

two weeks?

The upholstery at Holy Trinity is not able to be sanitized.

Pews on the south side of the church do not have upholstery and

you may request to sit there, providing they are available with

proper distancing.

July Stewardship Bulletin BitsJuly 5, 2020 - 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time“For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.” (Matthew 11:30)When we think of being good stewards, we may think that God is asking too much of us when He calls us to generously share our time, talent, and treasure. However, we must remember that we are not “owners” of anything, we are merely “stewards” of the gifts God has given us. All He is asking is that we give back a small portion, in gratitude, of what He has already given to us.July 12, 2020 - 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time“The seed sown among thorns is the one who hears the word but then the cares of the world and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit.” (Matthew 13:22)Does the lure of riches and material goods choke God out of your life? Are you so caught up in earthly activities that you have no time for God? Gratitude and generosity are virtues that we should strive to do on a dai-ly basis. Every decision we make either takes us one step closer to God or one step further away. What we receive at Mass every Sunday should be shared with others all the other days of the week as well.July 19, 2020 - 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time“The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a man who sowed good seed in his field…He who sows good seed is the Son of Man, the field is the world, the good seed the children of the kingdom.” (Matthew 13:24, 37-38)As children of God, we are all “good seeds.” We are blessed by God with the potential to accomplish much good in the world. We fulfill God’s plan when we spend time in prayer every day, use our skills to help oth-ers, and share our financial gifts to help build God’s kingdom on earth. Through our example of gratitude and generosity we sow “good seeds” on earth and ultimately help each other get to Heaven!July 26, 2020 - 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time“We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28)Do you really trust God? Do you really believe that God will provide all that you need? Faith is a challenge for everyone at times. Putting our trust in God, in everything we do, in good times and in bad, means that God’s plan for our lives may be quite different than what we planned. When one door closes, another one opens. Trust in God, His plan is always better.

Priests Leaving the Diocese: Rev. Antony Padayatty: Fr. Antony ministered in the Archdiocese of Regina since 2009. He started as Associate Pastor in Estevan for a year. The following year he served in Whitewood, Stockholm & Broadview. After one year the parishes of Esterhazy, Bangor and Gerald were added as well until 2013. He served Redvers, Bellegarde and Storthoaks for the following two years and was most recently Administrator of the parishes of Gull Lake & Cabri since 2016. Fr. Anthony is returning to his religious community, the Heralds of Good News, in India. We thank Father Anthony for his faithful service and wish him God’s abundant blessings in the years ahead. We also wish to express our gratitude to all who will be assuming new responsibilities. They have responded to the needs of the archdiocese with generous spirits. We ask the people in parishes where changes are taking place to warmly welcome their new pastoral leaders into their midst. To all the priests serving our archdiocesan Church, may God bless you abundantly as you continue your ministry with dedication, generosity and joy. Further announcements are forthcoming. Yours in Christ, ________________________ ______________________________

S4P 1T4 [email protected] July 1, 2020 Dear Friends Greetings! We thought it was timely to send you a greeting and to tell you how things have been going for us. More than three months have passed since we served our last meal in our dining room. Since then we have been serving bagged lunches at the door and have been working without the help of our volunteers – whom me miss! The numbers of persons coming for the lunches (men, women and children) has varied but most days we are serving between 80 and 110 persons. We have had the wonderful support of many of you, providing muffins and all the fixing for our lunch bags (meat, cheese, juice boxes, fruit, granola bars) which are much appreciated. While this is a limited form of hospitality, it is what our circumstances have permitted – and it has been gratefully received. We are able to respond to special requests as well – clothing, personal hygiene and other needed items, such as we have them. As we look forward to the next couple of months, this is what we are hoping to do. We will continue to serve lunches at the door through the month of July. We will be closed, as in years past, for the month of August, and the five of us will have the opportunity for some holiday time and to work on special projects in the house. In September we will resume with serving lunches at the door and make preparations for re-opening our dining room. This will likely take place toward the end of that month or the beginning of October. Following the required social distancing restrictions will mean that we will only be able to serve a limited number of persons at one time. For us, this likely means that we will only be able to seat between 18 and 25 persons at one time and will need to work with fewer volunteers, who are willing to wear face masks and try to follow the advised social distancing. Of course, the way we serve food will have to change and we will likely have to lengthen the time for our noon meal in order to accommodate the turnover of limited seating. We will also probably offer the alternative of carry-out to facilitate the limitations on space. How can we best serve in these current circumstances? We are listening to what the government health authority directs, but also what God seems to be asking and taking such steps as seem to be clear to us. Thank you for the support which you have given us in so many ways! We are very grateful for your friendship and for your prayers and miss our encounters with you. We do pray for you. Blessings on your summer days. With love, in Christ, Charlie for Kate, Christine, David and Peter
