Little Flower Parish

COVID-19 Update

Coming to Mass?

You MUST wear a mask to receive Holy Communion. (Archdiocese regulation.) We do not have a supply of masks, so bring your own if you wish to receive Holy Communion.

If you would like to be on the Sunday Mass list, call or email Gadia, our Office Administrator by Thursday that week (office hours are currently restricted to Tuesdays and Thursdays). Click here to email.

After your turn, contact the office again to be put on the wait list for a future Sunday Mass (by Thursday). Parishioners on the "every week" list should also wait to receive acknowledgement they can attend on weekends.

Little Flower parishioners May attend weekday masses without invitation. 

We Need Leaders!

The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry is launching a small group ministry for young adults!! Registration for joining the groups will open in mid December and groups will start gathering in mid January. All groups will have 6-8 people, have both a social and a faith-building component, will gather based around a common interest and will gather once a week for 8-10 weeks. But first… we need leaders!! If you have a hobby or interest you are willing to share with others and are interested in building community and growing in faith, this is for you!

We will provide all needed training and support. We just need willing hearts. For more info go to https://archregina.sk.ca/youth-ministry/young-adult-small-groups or email mbraden@archregina.sk.ca.

During this difficult time, we continue to provide love, support, and resources to those facing unplanned pregnancies or in need of help during a difficult pregnancy situation.

 

We are always counting first and foremost on your prayers. We also appreciate your financial support via cheque, cash, or online donations (e-transfers can be sent to the email below), as well as your donations of baby and maternity items ... Read the full letter

Archbishop’s Appeal

We are very pleased to announce the start of the 21st Archbishop’s Appeal. Our theme for this year’s campaign is Hope in Every Season. You should begin receiving information and donation cards in the mail or email next
week. You are also invited to follow the campaign online through the website or by joining the Archbishop’s Appeal
newsletter (see: archregina.sk.ca).

We encourage you to spend time offering thanks to our God and Father for all God has given, and prayerfully a donation that would not be burdensome but would express
your hope for the future of our church.

 Unfortunately we've suspended hospitality until after the virus situation resolves.

Keeping a Mass Journal 

EXPECT God to communicate with you

ASK: GOD, please show me one way in this Mass that I can become a-better-version-of-myself this week.

LISTEN:

- to the music
- to the readings
- to the prayers
- to the homily
- to the quiet of your heart

THE ONE THING will strike you ... write it down and pray about how you will incorporate that into your life this week.

Ready for Electronic Giving?

Now you can make your offering gifts by automatic transfer from your bank account to Little Flower. Read more information in this document.

Welcome To Little Flower  

Roman Catholic Church 

Little Flower parish was established in 1930, and today serves almost 500 families from our beautiful church near Regina's core. 

Our mission: Little Flower, as a faith community, reaches out to all in service, compassion and love to fulfill our mission of proclaiming the gospel daily in word and deed.

Our Patron, St. Thérèse 

I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.

Thérèse Martin entered a Carmelite convent at age fifteen. As Sister Thérèse of the Child Jesus, she lived a hidden life. She was just 24 when she died of TB. The world came to know her through her autobiography, The Story of a Soul.

She described her life as “a little way of spiritual childhood.”  She lived each day with unshakable confidence in God’s love.  What matters in life is “not great deeds, but great love.” 

“My mission — to make God loved — will begin after my death,” she said.  “I will spend my heaven doing good on earth.  I will let fall a shower of roses.” 

This is the reason St.Thérèse’s emblem is a crucifix covered with a profusion of roses.  The celebration of her Feast Day is October 1.

Our Stained Glass Windows

The windows in Little Flower church were designed and manufactured by Rault Freres, of Rennes, France, and installed by Burns Hanley Co. Ltd. of Regina.
