Our Lady of Good Help Church History

The Roman Catholic Rite

When the church was first built in 1951, mass was held in the basement hall until May 3, 1953 when Archbishop J.H. MacDonald solemnly blessed and dedicated the church. The six parish priests that served Immaculate Heart include:

Fr. Joseph Burke (1951); Fr. Duncan MacDonnell; Fr. Charles Nearing; Fr. William McClellan; Fr. George Neumann; Fr. John Cunningham (2001)

In 2001, it was decided to amalgamate Immaculate Heart of Mary with St. Anthony’s and St. Agnes parishes.

NOV 26 DEAR MONSIGNOR SALAME

Dear Monsignor Salame,
One year past working with you hand in hand and the field of the Lord in Edmonton. A year of proud achievement inspired by your strong personality.
Thank you for being a good shepherd and looking froward for many years of blessing and building a strong Maronite church in Edmonton that glorifies God's name.

OCT 19 A RALLY TO SUPPORT CHRISTIANS IN EGYPT: A CRY FOR JUSTICE

As you most probably know, Twenty four (24) Egyptian Christians were killed either through live ammunition or were violently run over and crushed by military armored vehicles during the bloody crashes ordered by the governing Supreme Military Council last Sunday October 09, 2011.

Next Saturday, Various Christian organizations are planning to stage a peaceful demonstration as per the following:

Date Saturday 22, 2011.

Time from 12:00 to 2:00 PM

Location: In front of the City Hall, in Churchill Square

Please join us to support the persecuted church in Egypt by personally attending the demonstration and encouraging your congregation to join us .

We will no longer tolerate the INHUMANE MISTREATMENT OF OUR FELLOW CHRISTIAN IN EGYPT and will bring attention to the plight of the Copts living under oppression and continued tyrant leadership.

Our Demand

We urge and request Canada to lead the international community (G8, G20, United Nations, and NATO), to publicly denounce the atrocities committed against Coptic Christians and to call on the Egypt Ambassador to Canada to appear in front of a House Committee to answer Human Rights questions, freedom of religion and protection of Coptic Egyptians.

We also urge the Canadian to join us to mourn the loss of our brethren and pray that God comforts their families
