This Sunday we gather for another great feast day – The baptism of our Lord. This feast recalls the second epiphany of our Lord – as through this event we hear the revelation spoken from the heavens that Jesus is Son of the Most High. As we celebrate this feast this week and the gift […]
It is with sorrow that we recently learned of the passing of the Pastor David Julien, who served as Priest-in-Charge at St. Bede from 2010 to 2017. For those in our community who didn’t know him, Pastor David was a graduate of Wycliffe College at the University of Toronto before serving as Assistant Curate at […]
This Sunday we gather for the feast of Epiphany where we celebrate the visit of the Magi. This Sunday officially concludes our Christmas season and begins the new season of Sundays after Epiphany. The feast of Epiphany is the bridge between the infant and the adult Christ, and we begin this week to contemplate what it means […]
We invited people to “Come to the Manger” — and they came in droves! It was wonderful to see so many old friends and new faces in the pews as we spent a night filled with song, celebration and fellowship.

Our kids are lively, fun and loud – so we’ve decided to harness that energy to praise the Lord. Under the direction of James Pothirajulu, St. Bede’s is introducing a new praise choir and band. As part of the renovation of the Sunday school room, the parish purchased a new electric keyboard and drum kit. […]
Over and over again in Scripture we read, “In Jesus’ name,” or “In his name.” The devils were powerless because of his name (Luke 10:17). The demons were cast out in his name (Mark 16:17-18). Healing occurred in his name (Acts 3:6, 3:16, 4:10). Salvation comes in his name (Acts 4:12, Rom. 10:13). We are […]
