Prayer
We believe God wants to have a personal relationship with His children. To grow in our relationship with God, we strive to practice daily prayer and Scripture readings as well as develop other spiritual habits.
Find spiritual help and healing through the Sacrament of Reconciliation and through prayer. Prayer requests can be made using our Prayer Request Box. You may also request Mass Intentions, which are given during our weekday Masses or prayer requests during Sunday Prayers of the Faithful for currently sick and recently deceased parishioners. Spiritual guidance is also available through pastoral counselling. Let us know how we can help you. Please see below for more information on how we can support you through prayer.
Confession
The Sacrament of Reconciliation is available to all every Saturday from 4:00pm-4:45pm and upon request. Please visit the’ Sacrament of Reconciliation’ page of this website to learn more about the Healing Power of this beautiful Sacrament of Mercy.

Praise & Worship
Come and be a part of this unique prayer experience and surrender your heart to God! Join us every Friday evening following the 7pm Mass as we express our love and awe of who God is through prayer and contemporary music. Led by the Holy Family Charismatic group, we adore Jesus in the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, we praise Him and give thanks to our Lord through prayer, silence, song and Gospel reflections. Lift up your hands toward the sanctuary, and bless the LORD. Psalm 134:2.
Intercessory Prayer Group
If you feel in your heart that you are being called to pray for the needs of others, please join one of our Intercessory Prayer groups anytime. Intercessory Prayer Groups meet on Thursday evening at 7:00 in the CWL room and we have 2 groups that meet on Friday afternoon, one at 1pm and another at 2pm in the church. Please feel free to join one of these groups at anytime! Miracles are truly happening thanks to the power of prayer in these groups!
Small Groups
We encourage you to join one of our small groups. In a Small Group, you will find your own small community of prayer warriors, an extended family that prays, encourages, supports and grows in faith with you. Please the Small Groups page for more information on how to join a group or start your own.
Eucharistic Adoration
And just as you would expect in a family home – our doors are always open, come and spend time with our Lord anytime during the week and especially during our Friday Adoration in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Eucharistic Adoration is available every Friday from 12noon until the 7pm Mass and daily before all weekday Masses. On the first Friday of the month, Adoration continues through until midnight.
Rosary & Divine Mercy Chaplet
The Rosary is a powerful and peaceful meditation on the life of Jesus that can be prayed privately or in a group. All are welcome to join in praying the Rosary at Holy Family 30 minutes before all weekday Masses and the Divine Mercy Chaplet is every Friday at 3pm.
Regardless of where you are in your faith, or in your life – we are here for you. If you’d like to talk, but you’re unsure of how to begin the conversation – just give us a call, send us an email, or visit us at the welcome desk after all weekend Masses and say “Hello”. We’d love to welcome you to our family!
