Thank You for Making Our Sold-Out Turkey Supper a Success!
We wanted to thank you to each and every one of you for joining us on this wonderful evening! Your presence truly made the event a memorable one.
We would also like to express our appreciation to the dedicated volunteers who worked behind the scenes to make this event possible. Their hard work, commitment, and passion are the driving forces behind the success of our Turkey Supper year after year. Without their dedication, this event simply wouldn't be the same!
As we reflect on the success of this year's Turkey Supper, we look forward to many more opportunities to come together and celebrate as a community. Your continued support means the world to us, and we can't wait to see you at our future events.
Once again, thank you for making our sold-out Turkey Supper an unforgettable evening, and thank you to our exceptional volunteers for making it all possible.

As mentioned last weekend, our Trunk Sale was a huge success! And that is because our Little Flower Family came together to make it happen.
The final monetary total is in! The Trunk Sale generated $ 2,570.51 in profit. The Organizing Committee want to thank all those parishioners who stepped forward with a helping hand. You have proven that we can be a vibrant parish!
WHOSE HANDS ARE GOD'S HANDS BUT OUR HANDS
Please notice the new display at the back of the church. We are excited to show you how we have become a vibrant and active Parish. Each hand represents a volunteer from our congregation, and each finger shows their ministry at Little Flower. We invite you to take some time to read the names of our wonderful volunteers!
Return to Vibrancy
Eighteen months before her death from tuberculosis on September 30th 1897, Thérèse experienced the darkening of her faith. Thérèse was not alone in suffering from spiritual insecurity and this affliction settled in for varying periods on more than a few occasions.
In spite of the darkening of her faith, she was content to endure her trial knowing it was vastly more important to be where and what God wanted her to be. For Thérèse, spiritual doubts were not stumbling blocks; she used them as stepping-stones. Thérèse, described her spiritual combat as a trial that God permitted her to undergo.
Saint Thérèse said: “The greatest honour God can do a soul is not give it much, but to ask much of it.”

Welcome To Little Flower
Roman Catholic Church
Little Flower parish was established in 1930, and today serves almost 500 families from our beautiful church near Regina's core.
Our mission: Little Flower, as a faith community, reaches out to all in service, compassion and love to fulfill our mission of proclaiming the gospel daily in word and deed.
Our Patron, St. Thérèse
I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.
Thérèse Martin entered a Carmelite convent at age fifteen. As Sister Thérèse of the Child Jesus, she lived a hidden life. She was just 24 when she died of TB. The world came to know her through her autobiography, The Story of a Soul.
She described her life as “a little way of spiritual childhood.” She lived each day with unshakable confidence in God’s love. What matters in life is “not great deeds, but great love.”
“My mission — to make God loved — will begin after my death,” she said. “I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.”
This is the reason St.Thérèse’s emblem is a crucifix covered with a profusion of roses. The celebration of her Feast Day is October 1.
Our Stained Glass Windows
