**New! The parish has a new YouTube channel! We’ve created this channel so as to be able to livestream the Sing-a-Thon that Chris, Dion and Grace are planning for the end of May, but who knows what other uses we might discover for it! In order to be able to livestream, we need people to subscribe, so if you use YouTube at all (or even if you don’t!), head on over to https://www.youtube.com/@AllSaintsbytheLakeDorval and hit the “subscribe” button. Thank you!
**Change to front Door Lock - Well, by now you've realized the front door lock change didn't happen last Friday but the good news is it's happening as we speak! It's exciting but also a little nerve wracking for those who have had a key in their pocket for the last 50 years. No worries, its easy! When you approach the front doors look to the left. There is a "key pad" with numbers on it. Enter the code and the right hand door will open. We are still waiting on the handicap buttons, but the threshold of the door has already been changed to allow wheelchairs to easily roll into the church.
Note -This change does not effect the alarm system. You must still put in your regular code.
**Sign-Up Sheets for PALM SUNDAY and for the MAUNDY THURSDAY NIGHT WATCH are up! If you can bring snacks, help herd children, or keep watch before the Reserved Sacrament in the chapel for an hour, please put your name down!
**Stations of the Cross will take place on the evening of Tuesday, March 31 beginning at 7:00 pm
Spaghetti Diner Update - Can you lend a hand? We are looking for help with setup, kitchen duties and clean up.
Please contact Marie-Claude Martz at marieclaudemartz@gmail.com (514)-261-2364 or
**There is No Cost for the meal, but a" free will" offering at the door will be appreciated. You can use debit, credit card or of course, cash. If you would like to use e-transfer, please note what the donation is for. Let us know how many people are coming by signing up on the sheet in the Narthex.
