Major Diocesan News May 6!
The Holy See announced on May 6 that the Coadjutor Archbishop is the Most Reverend Marcel Damphousse. Archbishop Elect Damphousse will become Archbishop of Ottawa-Cornwall when Archbishop Terrence Prendergast retires. The announcement also said that the Archdiocese of Ottawa and the Diocese of Alexandria-Cornwall are now canonically amalgamated to form the Archdiocese of Ottawa-Cornwall. The civil amalgamation will require an Act of Parliament and is not expected for several more months. In addition, the Most Reverend Guy Desrochers, C.Ss.R., has been appointed Bishop of Pembroke, also effective May 6.

ARCHBISHOP PRENDERGAST’S
STATEMENT ON
RACISM IN OUR SOCIETY
The recent dramatic killing by police of George Floyd in Minneapolis has had reverberations around the world as people protest this lack of respect for the personal dignity and life of each person created in God’s image. I invite you to speak about, and to pray for, the healing of relationships between people of different races and to help bring about the elimination of expressions or gestures of racism wherever these are found, including here in Canada. -
