A few days ago, we shared Bishop Fabbro's letter regarding the Canada Summer Jobs Program. His Excellency said, in part:
"I believe that we need to take a stand against the position of the Government of Canada [...] I have decided, therefore, that we, as the people of the Diocese of London, not make application or accept any monies from the CSJG program."
The summer programs we provide, such as camps and internships, are vital for our youth. They must go on, so we are taking up a collection. To join this effort please donate through your parish or click here to donate right now to the Summer Jobs Fund.
