Holy Trinity Vegreville

Special Collection for Humanitarian Aid for Ukraine:

To those who wish to show their support for Ukraine and its people we suggest donating to the Catholic Near East Association (CNEWA) which works directly with Caritas Ukraine. Please donate to CNEWA through our Basilian Parishes or directly online:

https://cnewa.org/ca/campaigns/ukraine/

Parishioners can also donate online through the Eparchial website,

https://eeparchy.com/donate/, or through the church by placing donation in a clearly-marked envelope. All donations will be forwarded to the Eparchy, and we will send all funds collected to those organizations already in Ukraine providing support and aid. Please be generous. (All donations are tax-deductible).

"For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope."

Parish Events and Announcements

November Food Drive

In memory of all those who perished in 1932-33 from the Holodomor, our church is once again sponsoring a food drive for the Vegreville Food Bank.

Parishioners are asked to bring non-perishable food items and put them in the specially-marked box in the vestibule. All donated items will be delivered to the Food Bank in December.

Thank you in advance for supporting this worthwhile cause by showing kindness to those who are suffering in our community, in memory of the cruelty received by our ancestors.
