🤝 Growing Together in Faith and Fellowship - July 2026 Tamil Mass | Annual Family Picnic & AGM

Following our July Monthly Tamil Mass, our community gathered for a joyful Annual Family Picnic and Annual General Meeting (AGM)—a day filled with fellowship, friendship, and thanksgiving.

During the AGM, we had the opportunity to reflect on our journey as a community and to recognize those who have faithfully served over the past three years. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our outgoing committee members for their dedication, leadership, and countless hours of service in strengthening the Edmonton Tamil Catholic Family. May God bless them abundantly for their generosity and commitment.

We also warmly welcomed our newly appointed committee members as they begin their ministry of service. We ask for your continued prayers as they lead our community with faith, humility, and love.

🙏 July 2026 Monthly Tamil Mass | Feast of Our Lady of Madhu

Our Edmonton Tamil Catholic Family was blessed to come together in faith and devotion for our July Monthly Tamil Mass, celebrated in honour of Our Lady of Madhu (Madhu Madha).

This year’s celebration was made even more special as we were honoured to welcome Archbishop Susai Jesu, who presided over the Holy Eucharist. In keeping with our cherished Tamil heritage, our community warmly received His Grace with a traditional Tamil welcome—a beautiful expression of respect, gratitude, and hospitality.

The celebration included a prayerful procession, heartfelt worship, and the Holy Eucharist, bringing together families, youth, and children in joyful communion with Christ and under the loving protection of our Blessed Mother.

We thank Archbishop Susai Jesu for his spiritual guidance and pastoral presence, and we are grateful to everyone who contributed to making this celebration a memorable expression of faith and unity.

📸 Here are some cherished moments from this grace-filled celebration.
