SPSP Calendar 2023

Every Sunday there is worship online at 9 am and in person at 10 am, unless noted.  Any reference to a specialty within a Sunday service is simply to assist in setting the liturgy and prayers, incorporating the theme into regular worship.

Included in this schedule are things that involve this parish and the people of this parish.  It does not include the myriad of offerings from the diocese and all other parishes. 

Please check our website www.stpeterandpaul.ca for complete and updated information.
