In case you are not on their mailing list, here’s the latest from the RC Diocese of Victoria Chancery.

Dear friends,

We have three items to share with you today:

1) All are invited to join “A Gift of Silent Reflection,” an online Diocesan Year-End Examen on Saturday, December 13, from 10:30–11:30 am. This 500-year-old Ignatian prayer helps us grow in gratitude and awareness of God’s presence in our daily lives. The reflection will be led by Joelle Dressler and Mary Kearsey. Find more information about how to join here: https://www.rcdvictoria.org/events/december-13-year-end-examen

2) On Sunday, December 28, the Diocese of Victoria will join the worldwide Church in celebrating the Rite of Closing of the Jubilee Year. The Rite of Closing will happen at the 11 am Mass at St. Andrew’s Cathedral in Victoria, with Bishop Gary Gordon presiding. All are invited to participate in person or via the livestream at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BBauIl-9vo

3) December 8, 2025, marks the 18th anniversary of the Diocese of Victoria Health Care Committee. Its members, bringing diverse professional backgrounds and representing regions across the Diocese, advise Bishop Gary Gordon on medical and ethical matters, and offer experience, support, and training in the ministry of care, accompanying the sick, the elderly, the lonely, and the dying with the compassionate presence of Jesus Christ. In doing so, they help foster and strengthen pastoral care among pastors, parishes, and all people in the Diocese of Victoria.
