A Word of Thanks to Robyn

As Robyn Daly steps down from her role as Pastoral Minister, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for her generous service to Canadian Martyrs Parish in recent years.

Since joining our parish community in 2018, Robyn has shared her gifts with dedication. As Pastoral Minister for the past two years, she led our weekly Women's Ministry at the Saint Kateri University Chaplaincy, coordinated Alpha, facilitated faith studies and Bible studies, welcomed newcomers into parish life, and helped recruit, screen, and form volunteers for a variety of liturgical and hospitality ministries.

Beyond these many responsibilities, Robyn has been a steady and welcoming presence throughout parish life. Whether assisting at regular Masses, joining student dinners, facilitating Synodal gatherings, supporting parish events, or simply taking the time to listen and encourage others, she has helped foster a spirit of hospitality, discipleship, and community that has enriched our parish and chaplaincy. Her thoughtful leadership, quiet witness, and genuine care for others have inspired many of us.

We invite all parishioners to join us at Mass this Sunday as we give thanks for Robyn's faithful ministry and ask God's blessing upon her as she begins this next chapter of her journey.

As Robyn steps away from her staff role to continue her professional training, we are grateful that she will remain an active member of our parish community and will continue to support the transition to our new Pastoral Minister, Sister Mary Pio. Please keep Robyn and Mike in your prayers, asking the Lord to continue guiding and blessing them in the years ahead.
