INTERNATIONAL AND ONTARIO DISTRICT NEWS
HAMILTON AND HALTON SERRA CLUBS ENTERTAIN SEMINARIANS
The Serra Clubs of Hamilton and Halton recently continued a long time tradition of
the Hamilton Club taking the seminarians from St. Peter’s Seminary in London to
lunch, an outing very much appreciated by the seminarians. Great Serra work!
THE SERRA CLUB OF GREY AND BRUCE COUNTIES
Presently they have fifteen names of people who are very interested and the next
step is to confirm a night and time that suits for their meeting. It has been
suggested that they select the third Wednesday of the month starting at 6:00 pm.
The Serra International Foundation
provided funds for the purchase of these
bicycles so catechists from the parish of
Tanuku in South India can more easily take
their ministry to faithful and far away
outposts. This looks like a great project for
the use of Foundation funds.

Our Club Serra Meetings
Our monthly Serra meeting was held on Wednesday December
6th at St. Teresa church. It began with a Holy Hour for vocations
at 5:00 PM followed by Mass at 6:00 PM.
The video of A Day in a Life: The Carmel of St. Joseph was
shown. None of our members had seen the video prepared by
Salt and Light television. You too can view this video on
You tube at:

This is just a brief view of the video that we enjoyed viewing.
