LAMP INTENTIONS
VOCATIONS
The season of Advent calls us to be vigilant in anticipation
of the Master’s return so that we live each day according to
the teachings of Christ. Could God’s “particular task” for
you be a call to a Church vocation? If you think God is
calling you to be a priest, religious or deacon, call:
Fr. Hansoo Park (416) 968-0997.
