Why we need to Rest in God on Sunday: “As God, who made all things, did not rest in those things … but rested in Himself from the created works … so we too should learn not to regard the works as the goal, but to rest from the works in God Himself, in whom our happiness lies.”
– St. Thomas Aquinas
“The Cross is the way of Paradise, but only when it’s borne willingly.”
– St. Paul of the Cross
St. Paul’s Co-Cathedral is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Saskatoon, SK. In recent time it has grown to become a young and fervent community looking to rekindle traditional Catholicism in light of recent Ecumenical Councils by making this parish the focal point of their lives.
We are an icon of the Church Catholic – every continent, every age, and every stage shines in the faces of this People of God. There is a strong core of parishioners who have continued to welcome new immigrants, build relationships with the residents of the downtown, and reach out in service to the city core. These are our precious elders. We are anchored in daily the worship of God in Holy Mass, the celebration of God’s mercy in Reconciliation, in being a centre for prayer, and in living as a community of care.
All are welcome to this holy place of prayer and faith in God. No pretenses here – this is a community that strives- with the heart of our Patron, Paul of Tarsus, Saint of the Inner City – “to please everyone in everything we do, not seeking our own advantage, but that of many, so that they may be saved” (1 Cor. 10:33). We look forward to you journeying with us as we all humbly approach Christ Jesus through His most Holy Sacrifice on the altar and are impelled to bring His Love into our families, our city, and our world.
Fr. Stefano Penna – Rector
Renovations
Our Sanctuary is in need of structural repair and we need your support. Come be a part of fixing the space and help to beautify it. We hope to enrich our offering to God the Father in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass through this project.

Padre Pio and the True Power of the Mass
Praised be Jesus Christ. Carissima famiglia, or should I say, you “twelve whom the Lord has gathered together” today, to give to us power and authority. That’s what the Holy Eucharist gives to us, “power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases” (Luke 9:1). That’s given to us. Given to us to go…

Fr. Penna’s Homily: “Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.”
Caríssima famíglia, my dearest brothers and sisters, “Remember the end of your life, and set enmity aside: remember corruption and death.” (Sir. 29:30) Death has kind of been intensely present this morning here in the parish. At the 8 a.m. mass, it was the first time that we gathered without Yvette Pinel, who for years,…

My dear family, carissima famiglia. If we listened, that was a really yucky first reading [from Ezekiel]. It was not nice at all. Anyone that says Christian faith is nice better think again.
