First parish of the diocese, Hamilton 1827

 

St. Augustine Church, built 1864
Our  parish of St Augustine’s is the Mother Parish of the Diocese of Hamilton. In 1827, Fr. James Campion built a small wooden chapel in Dundas, marking the beginning of  St. Augustine’s Parish. The first baptism recorded in our register is August 06, 1827, and since then a vibrant community of faith has called St. Augustine’s  home to this very day.

It’s a wedding, and the wine’s running out – so, hardly end of the world stuff, but a drama nonetheless. For the wedding couple and their families, its a looming […]

Putting out the fire

Mass readings for the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord:Isaiah 42.1-4, 6-7 Psalm 29.1-4, 9-10 Acts 10.34-38 Luke 3.15-16, 21-22 I was sick last week. Lost my voice for a couple of days. And like most coping with clogged sinuses, sore throat, being drugged up with cough syrup and other potions and elixirs and […]

We may say of Our Lady that she is remarkable as being vouchsafed from original sin and filled with grace, but that is a state of being that […]
