After receiving a warm welcome in the Hamilton Diocese 15 years ago, the time has come to own a permanent residence. This next step will strengthen our roots in the community so we can further grow our mission in communion with the local clergy.

What is our Mission?

Our Charism as Legionaries of Christ is to form lay people who will partake in projects of evangelization and foster Christian life in the local community.

Our Local Impact

Celebrating the sacraments and preaching at local parishes.

Providing retreats for men, women and couples in parishes in partnership with pastors, parishioners and our spiritual family Regnum Christi.

Accompanying adults and teens who are leading youth ministries.

Leading Catholic weekend retreats and camps for youth.

Organizing missions for teens and adults during which they feed the homeless and share the faith with the people they meet.

Current Accommodation

We are currently paying $3,700/month for rent. We have paid more than $500,000 in rent over the last 15 years. This house project will help us use our resources more effectively.

What are we looking for?

We are seeking a 5-bedroom house with space for a chapel, a living room and a reception area to accommodate five Legionaries in the next few years.

We want to stay in the Halton Region to keep serving Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Hamilton and adjoining communities.

How do we get there?

We expect the cost of the property to be in the region of $2 million dollars. To meet this goal, we are relying on the support of the community.

Please see the thermometer chart below to view the ongoing progress of our campaign thanks to the generosity of our donors!

How can you help?

We need your help to make this dream a reality. We would like you to consider:

Providing financial support.
Introducing us to friends and family who would like to contribute.
Volunteering your time to help with the campaign.
Praying for a successful completion of this project.

Testimonials

Paventi Family

"Our friendship with the Legionary priests started over 20 years ago. We have been involved in many apostolates with them such as retreats for couples, youth ministry, and missions for people in need. Those experiences have been beneficial for our spiritual life, family dynamic, and have formed our children into natural leaders, slowly filling their toolboxes with excellent values and virtues."

Ricciuti Family

"Through my personal experience, I found the Legionary priests to be a positive contributor to both the spreading of God’s message and enacting its message. The good works they perform for and in team with individuals and groups has proven to both strengthen and expand the faith community. Assisting our local clergy, guiding retreats for adults and leading youth activities are some of those good works."

I joined Challenge, a Catholic youth ministry, in grade 4. That’s where the Legionary priests first planted the seed of faith within me. Through their dedication, spiritual insights and leadership, I became passionate about my faith and felt God’s love working through them. As a current university student, I can confidently say that the seed they planted years ago continues to flourish.

Join us in praying to St Joseph

Remember, O most chaste spouse of the Virgin Mary, that never has it been known that anyone who asked for your help and sought your intercession was left unaided. Full of confidence in your power, I hasten to you, beg intercession for this project and your protection for my family. Listen, O foster-father of the Redeemer, to my humble prayer, and in your goodness hear and answer me.

Amen.
