The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity will be celebrated January 18 to 25, 2022 (https://bit.ly/3GwMjlc). Inaugurated in 1908 at the initiative of the Rev. Paul Wattson, an Episcopalian priest from the United States who would later join the Catholic Church, the event is now celebrated all around the world.

On the occasion of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, the Canadian Centre for Ecumenism invites you to celebrate this important moment for all. Archbishop of Montreal, Most Reverend Christian Lépine will also be present at this event.

The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) continues to post possible homily ideas and prayers of the faithful to help link the Sunday liturgy with the national pastoral initiative for life and family.

Pope Francis dedicates his first prayer message of 2022 to combatting religious discrimination and persecution, reminding us that religious freedom is not limited to freedom of worship, but is tied to fraternity.

Archbishop Christian Lépine sends a letter of thanks to all those who participated in Christmas celebrations during this time of pandemic.
