Located in Barry's Bay and area, in the heart of the Madawaska Valley, Ontario, we are proud of our rich cultural heritage -- Kashub, Polish, Irish, French-Canadian, Native, and a colourful sprinkling of other backgrounds from the human family.
Here, it is our baptismal sharing in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ that brings us together as families, a family of faith, to worship and transmit a knowledge of the Living God who is Father, Son and Spirit. From here go forth and propose with our lives the Good News that is Jesus Christ. |
